I am so honored to receive the @ASCO Advocate of the Year award. Engaging with advocacy is such an important way to support our patients. #ASCOAdvocacySummit
“If we're not advocating…fighting against #drugshortages & for NCI funding & the CONNECT for Health Act, others are advocating the other direction...What you're doing here really matters,” Advocate of the Year @lymphoma_doc. Congrats! https://t.co/UiVKrQNLXc #ASCOAdvocacySummit
