In August of the year 2008, María del Carmen Varela Feijóo,of Pontevedra but a resident of Madrid, began to feel discomfort
below her gums. She went to the dentist for medications but it were of no effect, which referred her to the Maxillofacial specialist who seeing the appearance of the wounds and that every day it's getting worse, referred her to the Hospital Universitario de la Princesa to urgently conduct a biopsy in which the result founds out that she has a Plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL) is an aggressive subtype of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL), which frequently arises in the oral cavity of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected patients. The doctor who attended her, told her that she had to put her immediately in a very aggressive chemo, because it was a very aggressive cancer and that he didn't know if she could bear it because she was very thin and weak.
