Course description
Are you - or is someone you know - struggling with a recent CLL (Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia) diagnosis and wondering how you can become empowered to manage your health moving forward? Or, do you care for someone who has CLL and are seeking community support as well as more CLL resources? Sign up for CLL 101 and you’ll learn more about CLL from an empowered patient perspective.Together, with the Patient Empowerment Network, we asked people living with CLL:
- What do you wish you would have known when you first were diagnosed?
- What do you want newly diagnosed people to know about living with CLL?
- What kind of mindset do CLL patients need to have?
- What resources are essential for CLL patients and their families?
You'll find answers to these questions (and more!) by enrolling in CLL 101.
