The November Lymphedema Patient Roundtable was overflowing with gratitude as panelists and attendees discussed a range of topics, including managing lymphedema during the holidays, the unique challenges faced by veterans with lymphedema, and the importance of community support.
Guest Brittanee Wright shared her journey toward a lipolymphedema diagnosis, highlighting how vital self-advocacy and a good support system can be when living with a chronic condition.
Then, in what’s become an annual tradition during the season of thanks, the Roundtable reflected on “lymphatic gratitude” — the unexpected positives and personal growth that emerge through life with lymphedema. Attendee Fenton summed it up beautifully in the chat: “I am grateful for the small victories each day… Lymphedema sucks, but life is grand!”
A warm thank-you to our panelists this month:
