MEET YOUR HONOURED HERO Lyne Brouillette Lyne Brouillette was first diagnosed with AML in 2008 and she was successfully treated at that time with chemotherapy. She was able to maintain a positive attitude throughout her treatment and went into remission following her treatment. In 2011 she began to feel not quite herself and her intuition told her that her cancer had returned. In this case she was correct and this time she would require a bone marrow transplant. Thankfully, her medical team had identified a match the first time she was diagnosed and they were able to secure this donor for her transplant. Lyne has been in remission since 2012 and was able to reunite with her donor last summer when he flew to Ottawa from Kentucky to meet her and her husband Cory. Lyne is very happy to be part of the Team In Training family!
