Join us for a free, in-person education program for the blood cancer community. Registration is required.
A blood cancer diagnosis can feel overwhelming—emotionally, mentally, and physically. “Managing the Stress of a Blood Cancer Diagnosis” will equip patients and caregivers with real-world tools and expert insights to take back control.
In this powerful panel discussion, you’ll:
- Understand the emotional and psychological impact of a diagnosis (Andrew Lipsky, MD).
- Learn practical, proven strategies to reduce stress and boost emotional wellness (Nell Timmer, MSN, FNP-BC, AOCNP).
- Discover how to tap into support networks and resources that make a difference (Caryn Scesney, LCSW, CCM).
Leave feeling informed, supported, and ready to face each day with more confidence and resilience.
Complimentary dinner provided and self-parking available. We encourage you to invite your caregiver and family members.
