The National Lymphedema Network (NLN) is proud to re-introduce Parents' Lymphedema Action Network (PLAN). PLAN's goal is to assist parents of young children affected by lymphedema (LE) by establishing an active Parent Networking group. PLAN is being reestablished in response to the increasing and desperate need for a network of parents who share similar experiences and stories of the "unknown." We have numerous and exciting projects, including:
This is a site for NLN/PLAN Members to communicate with other parents in the PLAN network. We encourage you to use this forum to share tips, resources and provide support for each other. This is your space, please be respectful when you post in order for the community to grow in a positive direction.
