Great article. Thanks for posting. Wish it were a PDF that could be downloaded so I could share it others in my life, with the hope that they could better understand how much courage it takes to continue to delve into life, despite the disease, potential side effects, and consequences. Carpe diem!

Hi starsafta, I have a pdf of the abbvie article, and if you message me with your email address I will send it to you. The same goes for anyone else who would like to have the pdf and can't access it yourself.

Great article. Thank you for posting

That’s very well written although a little disappointing at the end, I was expecting to hear “and now we have the cure”.

I totally agree, Cll can be as much a mental disorder as a physical one. The most important Allie in this battle is a strong mind.

Thanks for sharing. This addresses issues that doctors often just "don't get". Very good for those newly diagnosed.
