Exploring blood cancer treatment and support
Do you know someone with blood cancer?
Blood Cancer United is hosting an in-person education program for patients, survivors, caregivers, loved ones and community members starting at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday, November 5, at Erin’s Pavilion, 4965 S. 2nd St. in Springfield.
SIU hematologist oncologist Junaid Hussain, MD, will discuss the latest updates on treatments and emerging therapies. Counselor Shannon Nail will offer practical advice on coping with stress and leaning on support—especially during the holidays.
Guests can also meet valuable community organizations and connect with others managing a similar diagnosis.
A complementary dinner will be provided as part of the informative evening. Registration is required. Visit https://bcutd.org/IL11525 or contact Amanda Gutzwiller at 313.651.7353.
