World Lymphedema Day 2019!

Description: Our Goal To make cures for lymphedema and lymphatic diseases a global priority. Get Involved WLD is an annual advocate-driven celebration. This is our opportunity to educate the world about the extent of this global "lymphedemic." This includes lymphatic diseases (LD), primary and secondary lymphedema (LE), lipedema (LI), lymphatic filariasis (LF), lymphatic malformations(LM), and the full lymphatic continuum (LC) of diseases impacted by the lymphatic system. The success of this day depends on your efforts to educate the world.
