A Resource About Adult Leukemia and Lymphoma
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When disease strikes, it touches the lives of all who surround the
afflicted patient, and dealing with issues of the disease and its effects
requires the patience and understanding that comes with knowledge. The change
in life strikes at not only the physical, but also the emotional and
psychological levels of human interaction. A new publication is now available
free of charge from The Leukemia Society of America which provides the insight
and knowledge so necessary to dealing with the problems that come with
leukemia and lymphoma. It is entitled "Coping With Survival: Support for
People Living With Adult Leukemia and Lymphoma". It is a book of some 30 pages
designed to help adults touched by these diseases, as well as their families
and friends. According to Peter J. Quesenberry, M.D., The Leukemia Society's
vice president for medical and scientific affairs, "This is not just a guide
for leukemia and lymphoma patients. This is a survival manual for any cancer
patient and their family. The information the noncancer patients can glean
from this booklet is quite insightful." You may obtain your copy by calling
your local chapter of the Leukemia Society of America, or by sending your
request to their National Office at 733 Third Avenue, New York, NY 10017. The
publication of this booklet was made possible by a contribution from Sweet 'N
Low and other funds generated by the Gary Carter Sweet 'N Low Annual Golf
Classic.
