I believe you can access & view it from the CLL Society site. I believe I’ve done that in the past. Dr. Brander is my doctor and she’s very knowledgeable with CLL/SLL. I’m excited to see she will be joining the meeting.

Thanks for your reply. I’m hoping it’ll be there later to watch - we r early risers but 4am is a bit much for us and I’ve not yet found any info much different to what the general public r getting here, so we r following the uk nhs recommendations- figure can’t be too careful and we r only a few steps behind uk anyway. Stay clean

Yes, 4am is very early. It’s good that you registered because they’ll send you an email about it. Are you near the UK? I’m in the US and the numbers are going up fast. I have an appointment with my local Hematologist tomorrow and I need to go because my lymph nodes are enlarged in quite a few places again. I really wanted to cancel but I know I need to at least get my blood work done so I know where I’m at and know how to take care of myself. We have to be more cautious than we were before the Coronavirus started wreaking havoc. It’s very scary. Take care & stay safe & well.

No we r Australia and they r doing Telehealth now instead of face to face appts where possible. Just hoping drugs arrive in time - he’s on a trial. He can do bloods locally and we discuss at Telehealth appt Tuesday. It’s good they r sorting it all out like this and just as well as his hospital is interstate so it’d be near on impossible to get there now anyway. You take care and I hope it’s nothing too much of concern with your nodes. Our thoughts our worldwide to our cll support family xx
