Thank you for sharing this play. I have lymphedema in one arm following breast cancer. So the play very informative to me and ours like me. Hope research continues and more help and advice can be offered to many many lymphedema sufferers.
Thank you for this play and everything the organization does for those of us with Lymphedema. I'd love to see more understanding and compassion in the medical field for the real risk of Lymphedema with cancer treatment. Also, I appreciate all you're doing to make Medicare and the medical insurance companies in the U.S. more open to paying for this treatment. I wasn't offered good care early on and now 8 years later I just got Medicare and am getting better care but I'm still paying out of pocket for much of it. I hope there will be a turnaround on the part of the insurance industry to recognize and fund both research and pay for the treatments we now have with less out of pocket costs to the patients.
Thank you for this video. Lymphedema may not be life threatening, but it is life affecting, life altering, and, to some extent, life compromising. It is challenging, and hopefully your video will help others understand some of the impact of LE.
Oh my goodness, I didnt realize how sensitive I felt about this problem concerning my own lymphedema, until I watched this heartwarming play about it! 😢 I was okay for the first year after breast cancer surgery until the swelling gradually worsened. I was upset, but I had my PTNurse helping alot and as soon as I started using the bio tec compression along with the stretchy arm sleeves and salaris sleeve I felt comforted in the routine. My legs arent huge but they arent as thin as they were, lol 😂 I was diagnosed 2 years ago with Invasive ductal carcinoma breast cancer. Only in one side. So Iam the one booby lady now 😂😂😂 but its okay. This play was so on point with all sides of each person’s point of view! The actors were so realistic in their behavior, I cried through the whole thing! ( even new theater 🎭 never made me feel so much emotion! ) 😂 ❤ This sweet young girl acting the part of the one discovering about her condition of the disfiguring disease, did such a great job displaying her sadness over her new boyfriend and his exasperating mother, not showing her any compassion or empathy just crushed my heart! This young lady actress is so cute! She was so perfect for this part! I was crying my eyes out about ready to give up watching because I couldnt stand her feelings being hurt that way, until the boyfriend finally got a clue to be supportive of her! 👍😃😇🥹 So then I felt very relieved!! This play had a happy ending!! ( but that mother inlaw was 😳🙄🙄🙄getting on my last nerve! 😂 Great job! This play nailed it!! 😂 Thankyou for producing it for us viewers out here in youtube land! Someday I firmly believe there will be a cure for all these types of swelling!! And Iam going to be on it! Whooo hoo!! 😂 ❤💕💕💕💕💕
