Two years ago today, I sat glued to my computer as I watched the live stream of that day’s Congressional proceedings. Nearly 13 years after the Lymphedema Treatment Act was first introduced, the bill was finally being voted on by the full Congress!
Words cannot express the joy and relief I felt when the bill was passed. My son Dylan was born with lymphedema, and for all of his life I have been working to make sure he has coverage for his vital compression garments.
Thanks to passage of the LTA, more patients than ever before are getting the care they need, but there is still more work to do. So today, I’m humbly asking you to please make a donation if you have not yet done so during this holiday giving season.
We would be so grateful for a contribution of $50 or whatever is right for your budget. We can’t do this without you.
You can donate via credit card, debit card, or with PayPal at our Year-End Fundraising Campaign, or by mailing a check to: Lymphedema Advocacy Group, PO Box 1682, Carrboro, NC 27510.
We’ve accomplished so much together, but there is more to do. Thank you for your support and happy holidays!
