I hope you get a chance to have this. CAR-T saved my life at St James 3 years ago, but I live about 20km away from Kilmainham and it was relatively easy to deal with the in-patient stay and the out-patient check ups.
It was such a privilege to welcome the Lymphoma Coalition to Dublin this week! 🇮🇪✨ And for CLL Ireland Michael Rynne to open the global summit.
CLL Ireland is incredibly proud to be part of this remarkable Coalition, now representing over 100 member organisations across the globe. Especially great to connect with our CLL community from around the world within the Coalition.
This connection keeps us united with friends and allies worldwide, all driven by one shared mission: ensuring every patient, everywhere, has access to the very best treatment and care, no matter where they live. 💙
A heartfelt thank you to Lorna Warwick for your extraordinary dedication and service to our community you’ve built something truly special. And a warm welcome to our new CEO, Patricia Gilmore, we’re so excited for this next chapter together! 🚀
A big thank you to Susan Thornton and Guy Bouguet for steering the Coalition in the right direction and making sure the voices of the members are heard.
Special thanks to the LC team Natacha, Shawn, Catherine, Kim, Amanda and Marjorie for putting this conference together.
CLL Ireland was delighted to attend this important event at Dáil Éireann to campaign for a Cellular Transplant centre in Cork.
It was incredibly encouraging to see such strong support from our politicians! 🇮🇪 Also great to see so much interest in blood cancers and it's impact on our community.
It is so vital that blood cancer patients across Ireland have access to the very best treatments, closer to home.
We were heartened to see powerful international support too, including from Professor Ibrahim Yakoub-Agha, President of the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT), and from our own expert consultant Vitaliy Mykytiv at Cork University Hospital (CUH).
Hearing patient stories and seeing so many blood cancer transplant survivors standing together in support of this campaign was truly powerful. Their voices make all the difference 💙
A huge thank yoMags McCarthyarthy and Senator Eileen Lynch for organising such a meaningful, impactful day, we stand with you all in calling for stem cell transplant and CAR‑T capacity to be expanded at CUH, for better care for patients across the South and across Ireland.
