The Lymphedema Patient Roundtable: February 2025

Published: 17 February, 2025

Be still our hearts! The February Lymphedema Patient Roundtable had a full dance card with special guests and conversational topics centered around the theme of support.

How do you build a support system? What happens when the support offered isn’t quite the support you need? And how do you nurture your sense of self amidst the sometimes overwhelming routine of lymphedema management? The panelists and attendees shared their thoughts, noting that this monthly meet-up is an important part of their support systems, too.

The hour sped by with discussions of topics such as managing lymphedema during long road trips, surgical treatments, and pneumatic compression pumps. In honor of Valentine’s Day, lymphedema therapist Karen Ashforth closed the evening by reading two love poems: “i carry your heart with me” by e.e. cummings and “Love After Love” by Derek Walcott.

Our hearts are full of gratitude for this month’s panel:

This Roundtable was originally recorded live on February 11, 2025, and has been edited for time. The views and opinions expressed in this program are those of the speakers and do not necessarily reflect the views or positions of Lympha Press.
