The
Leukemia and Lymphoma Society of Canada BC/Yukon Region is recruiting MDS and leukemia patients and their family members and friends for a
Leukemia and Myelodysplastic Syndrome Family Support Group in the Vancouver area.
Their goals are to
- provide an opportunity for people affected by MDS or leukemia to get together and share their experiences and wisdom
- provide educational seminars to help group members learn about these diseases
- provide social, emotional and informational support to people living with MDS or leukemia
Although the group will not be group therapy, health care professionals working in cancer care will facilitate it.
