Participants will gain a better understanding of:
•Who might need a transplant
•How to prepare for a bone marrow or stem cell transplant
•How is a transplant is performed
•Potential risks and side effects, and how to manage them
In addition to learning about bone marrow and stem cell transplants, participants will learn about the resources available in their community and those provided by The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. We encourage you to invite your caregiver and family members.
