Dear Contact First Name,
Thank you for your interest in the National Lymphedema Network, Inc. (NLN), a non-profit
(501)c3 organization. It has been some time since you contacted us, and we are pleased
to connect with you. First of all we're glad you found us and we hope you've found
our information outreach worthwhile and hope you will join the greater lymphedema
community.
The mission of the NLN is to create awareness of lymphedema through education,
and to promote and support the availability of quality medical treatment for all
individuals at risk for or affected by lymphedema. We support and reach out to
lymphedema (LE) patients, healthcare providers, scientists and the general public
As you may know, LE is an accumulation of protein rich fluid in the interstitial
tissue causing swelling, usually in arms or legs, but also seen in the abdomen,
trunk and neck area. LE can occur from idiopathic (unknown cause), hereditary causes
(primary LE) or secondary LE (acquired) as a result of surgery for cancer, infection,
or trauma. An untold number of women, men and children in the United States alone
are currently living and struggling with upper and lower extremity lymphedema, yet
in a nation leading the way in medical research, only a small handful of healthcare
professionals are knowledgeable or have interests in this chronic lifelong condition.
Here at the NLN headquarters, it has and continues to be our #1 goal to make lymphedema
a household word, making sure that not another lymphedema patient is told that nothing
can be done for their swollen limb.
Now that you've found us, we hope you'll become a part of the NLN as a member. Members
not only continue receiving our electronic e- Channel, but in addition receive:
* A quarterly newsletter, LymphLink,(40 pages) with cutting edge articles,
a Resource Guide (listing of lymphedema clinics, therapists, physicians, suppliers),
Support Groups, and listings of conferences and professional training programs
(http://www.lymphnet.org/pdfDocs/NLN_LL_July_2013_sm.pdf [http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001rgh2h2D9GkansY24Djsx4eYi6-xCTM0y6IG_Lz4t3uLxBRI7PGBAeFFCR_c-ZNPt-gUwjB6mFiS-rphIbWVU3BsMJH3iHSJ38VSGc3g2VD68EMBCTKzI_fiu7E2KU7IaNYYVum-9Hn4RWWjPa6EyyVGRa5DgKCVL])
* Marilyn Westbrook Garment Fund(MWGF) allows for members who do not have insurance
or the financial means to purchase the much needed compression stocking(s)
or sleeves/
* Discounts on educational materials and conferences, including NLN's biennial
professional conference
* Access to online articles published since 1989
* Priority return phone calls
It is our hope that one day, we will find a way to prevent lymphedema. Until then,
the NLN is committed to doing all that we can to help educate our members, and
provide the latest clinical and diagnostic research published in peer reviewed journals,
and continue to educate
physician in every discipline. Our ultimate goal is to allow every patients with
LE to provide the treatment they deserve.
We hope that you will take time to join us in the fight by becoming a member.
