The
Walk for PNH was a great success. Along with patients and their supporters, the Walk was attended by hematologists and nurses from the New York area and a busload of employees and family members from Alexion Pharmaceuticals, who came from Connecticut.
A total of 150 people participated. The Walk raised $38,000 for PNH medical research through the
Aplastic Anemia & MDS International Foundation.
Dr. Sara Higgins, organizer of the event and of the
PNH Research and Support Foundation, says that plans are already underway for next year's walk.
