The Hairy Cell Leukemia Support Group

The HCL Support Group are people who have had HCL, have it now, or practice medicine on HCL. They respond through electronic mail to patient's inquiries about the disease.

Here's how you can help others with HCL

Frequently I get e-mails, or phone calls from people or loved ones of people with HCL asking for information or advice about their situation. Sometimes they just want to communicate, to hear from someone who has been through it. Quite frankly, I often don't know what to say. Their experience may not parallel mine. There are many different experiences with this disease. That's where you come in.

As a member of the Support Group, you'll receive forwarded e-mails from me from those people seeking information. You then will write them with pertinent information. Can you imagine what it would be like to receive dozens of letters of support from people who have weathered Hairy Cell, at the same time you were battling it? Very powerful medicine.

Of course, there's no obligation, no fees, etc. You merely read your mail and decide if you can respond.

You may write me at any time to cancel your involvement.

Why not give it try? I have been very gratified by my efforts to help people and I think you'll find the same to be true for you!

Please join.
