Posted by: Denise on: July 9, 2021

Celebrating My 20 Year Anniversary of CLL I remember vividly when I was first diagnosed with CLL at age 46. It was July 2001, shortly before our national disaster.

CLL The Cure is in the Grocery Store

Posted by: Denise on: October 5, 2018

Last night my husband and I had what we call “fast food” for dinner. Don’t raise your eyebrows; it’s not what you think. I tend to cook an elaborate dinner, in quantity suitable for leftovers, about three times a week. After that, we either eat leftovers combined with freshly steamed vegetables or a raw salad, […]

Posted by: Denise on: September 1, 2017

Hello, It’s September 1st of 2017, and I thought I just might be overdue on making a post here. An update, if you will. I’m doing fine. Great, even. As a matter of fact I pay more attention to my signs of aging than I do my CLL, which is amazing! When I realign my […]

Supplements for CLL

Posted by: Denise on: January 25, 2017

I recently was emailed a request to update my CLL supplement list. My list of supplements is long, but not everything I take is because of CLL. I’m 61 (and a half), so like most people, I have other issues as well. I will therefore give a reason for each supplement I take. The first […]
