Due to a technical error beyond our control, we do not have the original recording available from Feb. 28, 2024. However, Lew Christie, our survivor voice sat down with Jen Gillette, our LMSW on staff, and they were able to provide the following second recording, based on Feb. 28. Dr. Im’s slides are here for you as well.

This month, Dr. Annie Im of the UPMC Hillman Cancer Center in Pittsburgh will focus on how to navigate chronic Graft Versus Host Disease (cGVHD) and updates on treatment options. As clinical trials and treatments advance, we want to be sure you have everything needed to manage it all and get busy enjoying life. Lew Christie, a two-time AML transplant survivor with an extraordinary story, will share how he gets through the tough days as he manages his GVHD on a daily basis. Jennifer Gillette, LMSW, Staff Social Worker at nbmtLINK will host this program. There will be time for live questions.
