'The leukemia that had been so unlikely to return was back with a vengeance,' Raquel Coronell Uribe, Harvard Crimson's first Hispanic president, wrote in a heartfelt essay announcing her cancer diagnosis.
"The leukemia that had been so unlikely to return was back with a vengeance," Raquel Coronell Uribe wrote in a heartfelt essay announcing her cancer diagnosis.
During the fall 2022 semester, she recalled, she felt uneasy, struggled to attend classes and complete her coursework, get enough sleep and eat, and she had a sharp pain in her shoulder. Having been first diagnosed with the disease at 16, Coronell Uribe described her experiences as a teenager maturing with the illness as she watched friends"sneak off to parties" while she remained inside for chemotherapy and was forced to trade her"school uniform for a coarse hospital gown."
Now diagnosed with the illness again, she writes:"There’s no way to talk or write about illness; none that is good enough, anyway. You can try to describe the pain to the reader, you can detail the battles of the war, but you cannot show the reader the pain itself.
