We are grateful that the Lymphedema Treatment Act is supported by so many outstanding organizations. This letter was recently sent to our Senate champions, Maria Cantwell (D-WA) and Chuck Grassley (R-IA). 37 other organizations joined us, the Lymhedema Advocacy Group, in expressing their support and appreciation for the Senators’ leadership on this bill.
In honor of Mother’s Day, we are re-sharing this blog post by LymphieLife, “A conversation with Heather Ferguson, mother of the Lymphedema Treatment Act.” In the interview I discuss how my son being born with lymphedema led to my work to close the insurance coverage gap for compression supplies and the founding of the Lymphedema Advocacy Group.
We are so close to reaching our 2021 Give Hope campaign goal — less than $3,000 to go, and thanks for our angel donor’s the match, that means we only need $1,500 more in new donations! If you haven’t donated yet, will you be one of 100 people to give $15, or any amount that is right for your budget?
Thank you so much for your support, and I wish all the mothers out there a Happy Mother’s Day!
