By Brian Koffman – Patient
I wrote this many years ago for my CLL blog, http://bkoffman.blogspot.com that would eventually give birth to the CLL Society. I had completely forgotten about it until someone found it and asked if they could spiff it up and use it in a publication. I was so glad to see it reawaken and repurposed for my own sake and that of others.
It reminds me that there are more than facts to pursue in our CLL journey, there is emotional balance and love.
Stay strong. We are all in this together
