For anyone who needs, please pass along.
We often refer patients to Imerman Angels, so while in O’Hare airport in Chicago, where they are based, our director had to snap a photo of this ad-check them out, text that number if you’re looking for a “mentor”/survivor to talk to who’s been where you are now!
They are a great resource for support! 🙏💙✨

It’s amazing to me that women who’ve had lymph node removal due to breast cancer surgery are still not educated about their “at risk” potential for lymphedema. Unfortunately, the medical system waits for visible signs such as swelling or infection, yet it could so easily be prevented if a woman can recognize early signs. If you know someone who’s had bc surgery, recommend they have a lymphatic treatment by a certified therapist and encourage them to learn more about their changed body!
Important coverage for compression sleeves!
Insurance reimbursement 🤞
Reimbursement for treatment of lymphedema is sooo needed and would help those struggling to help themselves.

Lymphedema patients try to convince Congress to change a law to make treatment affordable "It's called the Lymphedema Treatment Act. All it is we want Medicare to have a code to pay for the garments." - Becky Sharp
