Know Cancer

The International Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia Foundation (IWMF) provides encouragement and support to people with Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia (WM) and offers information and education programs that address patient's concerns, and promotes and supports research leading to a cure. The IWMF offers many patient publications, including a New Patient Information Package (Info Pak). IWMF-Talk is an e-mail talklist for discussion of every aspect of WM (available in English, French, German, Spanish, Nordic Countries, U.K.). Telephone Lifeline Support provides telephone numbers of IWMF volunteers who will answer questions about their first-hand experience with specific treatment for WM. IWMF also provides telephone and e-mail network lists that connect patients and caregivers. IWMF provides funding to researchers studying a treatment or cure for Waldenstrom macrogloblinemia or related blood cancer. Information on the Web site is available in French, Spanish, and German.
