Calling All Caring Caregivers!
We need your input to develop new nbmtLINK programming in 2017 
aimed at helping caregivers.
First, we have a few questions for you. 
Your assistance will help us create a comprehensive, helpful webinar for caregivers!   
  • What do we need to share to help equip new caregivers pre-transplant?
  •  What can the nbmtLINK provide to help caregivers survive the transplant process?
  • What do caregivers need to know about the transitioning journey of hospital treatment ending to surviving a bone marrow/stem cell transplant at home?
  • Your best tip as a former caregiver --what does every caregiver need to know?
Please send your responses to Claudia Laupmanis, [email protected]. Those who help us out will receive a new LINK adult/child coloring book as a thank you for your time! (A $7 value.) This offer is valid for a limited time. Offer ends Feb. 10.




 
Guide to Bone Marrow and Stem Cell Transplant Now Available in English and Spanish

The nbmtLINK is celebrating 25 years in 2017!
We Are Celebrating 25 Years of Linking and Caring in the New Year!
 Our Silver Jubilee is Here
  The nbmtLINK is proud and excited to be celebrating this wonderful milestone in 2017. As you may know, Myra Jacobs established the LINK in 1992. We plan to commemorate this momentous occasion. Stay tuned as we recognize 25 years of helping patients, caregivers and health care professionals navigate the bone marrow transplant journey with success, compassion and hope. 
 


Thank you to all who gave to our annual appeal in late 2016. There is still time to donate through the end of the month. Your tax-deductible donations make our programs and new books possible. We thank you in advance for your generous contributions. 
How do You Celebrate Your Transplant Anniversary?
Transplant survivors celebrate two birthdays each year, the day they were born and the day of their transplant. 

We invite all survivors to celebrate by receiving a colorful card from the nbmtLINK to commemorate the day. If you would like to receive a card, please contact Cindy Burke at 800-546-5268 or email, [email protected].

Special thanks to the Meredith A. Cowden Foundation and the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS), proud sponsors of this program.
We're very social and ready to share our stories of hope, love and inspiration with you. Like us, read us, talk to us, share us! Together, we can help others 
navigate the journey.
