Hi,

I am a big believer in combination therapies for CLL.

This week I'm posting an interview on our nonprofit’s website cllsociety.org with Dr. John Seymour from the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre in Melbourne, Australia when we talked at ASH 2016 about combination therapy with venetoclax. You can view my summary, watch the interview or read the transcript at

This is the future and he lays out the research pretty clearly.

Stay strong.

We are all in this together.

Doc,

I love when they suggest possible "cure". Maybe the ingredients are here?

Maybe. Or at least a very durable remission. Trials will tell us.

Doc,

As you always say, we don't want to be stranded on third base.

I was just thinking how far things have come since my diagnosis. I can only imagine what you think looking back.
