*/?>Thank you for the MDS event last Saturday in New York! I thought it was informative and interesting with an excellent combination of speakers. The general feeling was friendly and the food was good – a very pleasant and useful day.
- Lois B.Each time I attend an MDS Foundation Patient Forum, I learn a little bit more about MDS. The presentations are always great.
- Scott M.I wanted to let you know that I loved attending the patient forum. It was superb and very well done. I introduced myself and spoke to many of the patients, and their loving caregivers. I listened to their stories, which despite their circumstances, were filled with hope and gratitude for their lives and loved ones. I readily recognized their struggles and questions based upon my experience with my mother. The session was helpful and very informative – the oncology nurse did an excellent job of dismissing worries and concerns with facts and information. Thank you for the invitation – I received a lot from attending.
- Deborah P.Just wanted to thank you for such a nice symposium last Saturday in Indianapolis. We have attended at least two and they have all been wonderful. Thank you for all your hard work.
