New Virtual Summit: Attend Living Well With CML!

by Susan

We are always looking to share the latest and greatest events with members of the online health community – especially those events that could really help patients, caregivers, and other members of the online health community. When possible, in-person events are an amazing experience – but it’s not always easy to get there face-to-face. That’s why online events are a great alternative.

 

The upcoming CML Virtual Patient Summit is one of these online events. We’re excited to share this virtual summit – complete with live webinars that focus on topics important to members of the CML community. Whether you’re a patient, caregiver, or professional – this summit has something for everyone. Topics that will be discussed include: nutrition and exercise, communicating with family & friends, finances and working with CML, and other topics focusing on disease management.

 

Additionally – this particular event has a special guest. Ever wonder what it would be like to talk to a famous person who shares your health condition?  What if that person was the NBA All-Time leading scorer?  Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, CML Patient Advocate, will be available at the Virtual Patient Summit: Living Well With CML to answer all your questions on September 22nd.

 

We hope you’ll be able to attend the event and invite everyone you know who may be interested. You can register by visiting: http://bit.ly/ONm7ms
