The emotional needs of the newly diagnosed CLL patient are massively neglected particularly in the UK (not sure if the US do better) so this is a very important subject.

Yes, I was given a booklet about CLL by the Haematologist and then went home to tell my husband the diagnosis.🙁

If your Mac is running Snow Leopard or older there are no updates for new video drivers etc.

You might want to consider an iPad... I have had Macs since 1984 but now far prefer the iPad...
