Hi,

We will be holding a total of a dozen free CLL specific ½ day Educational Forums for patients and caregivers across the country over the next few months. These will cover everything from the basics to the latest research from ASH presented by the local faculty with sessions by patients too. Each one is a little different, as we rely on the local experts to talk about their CLL strengths and research.

The next one is in Duarte, CA with faculty from City of Hope on Feb. 9, then Feb 23 in Charlotte, NC, then Seattle, March 2 and Portland, March 9. I will be at all of these, speaking on being on our advocates and would love it you could attend and say hello. For more info and to register, please go to: cllsociety.org/patient-educ...

Later we will be at MDACC in Houston, the NIH in Bethesda, Mayo in Minneapolis and more.

Stay strong.

We are all in this together.

Brian

Not at this point, but we do have a CLL support group in Rochester and CLLPAG has a biannual CLL meeting in Niagara Fall, the Canadian side that is pretty great.
