One Love Pet Salon Fundraiser

Local Business Hosts Fundraiser for Cancer Fighting Owner

By Natalia Castro, MK Summerlin- NW Las Vegas Publisher July 2, 2015
It's hard to say which is worse; the endless tests and worrying of not knowing what is wrong OR the diagnosis of a very rare illness. For Marielyn, owner of local business One Love Pet Salon, that diagnosis is Angioimmunoblastic T Cell Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma. This type of cancer is so rare that it affects only 1% of lymphoma patients. 

This means that even knowing the diagnosis does not provide an easy to follow treatment plan. Treatment is so complex that Marielyn's Las Vegas oncologist reached out to UCLA for guidance and treatment options. After 6 months of tests and questions she is now undergoing intense and lengthy chemo treatments which will take her away from home again and from her beloved dog grooming business.

To help with the incredible financial burden that comes with this medical diagnosis One Love Pet Salon is having a fundraiser on Sunday, July 12th beginning at 10am. Bring your furry friend to One Love Pet Salon to receive their free bath and nail trim with donation.

One Love Pet Salon is located at 10080 W Tropicana Ave. If you have any questions or need more information you can reach them at 702-384-5683.
