  • Blue Drops Hello! I am 24 years old from Boston. I was born with lymphedema on both legs from my knees down. Its a struggle accepting it and being grateful because it could always be worse. I hope to one day have the courage to say yes to a pedicure when I go to get my nails done, or to go to the beach without digging my feet in the sand. I never met someone with what I have so I figured I'd give this a shot. Be blessed <3

  • Doris Ortenberg Hello. My name is Doris, I am 20 years old, and live in Chicago. I have lymphedema in my left leg. I have been diagnosed for about ten years now and to this day, I am still having difficulty dealing with it and accepting it. I have never been able to relate to anyone, let alone talk to anyone about this, so finding this community has become a blessing. Please feel free to message me, I would love to talk!

  • Susan Eppling Hello! I am an OT that specializes in pediatrics. I am thinking about now becoming certified in lymphedema therapy. Do you happen to know if there are many jobs available in the greater Boston area? I have been looking for job postings on line but have not found any near Boston for OTs with LT certification. Thank you very much for your input!
