We had people from WV, PA and Northern & Southern Ohio. One of our guests will have a SCT March 26 and 1 other, who at 26 yrs old, was 6 months out from a SCT. Another had a kidney transplant and many others SCT's. We had first timers and others who were regulars. Our guest Sharla Wells-DiGregorio, PhD - Pain and Palliative Care Dept of OSUMC was very easy to talk with and a very interesting speaker. She met with the caregivers while Dr. Don Benson met with the patients. Dr. Benson gave an update on clinical trials at OSU. He is such a personable man & stayed with us till the very end of the meeting. As a matter of fact, 15 or so stayed after we'd adjourned to chat and Dr. Benson stayed also. We couldn't ask for more.
