Project Leader Cml Latam 2020 Project
In 1998 my friend Silvia was diagnosed with CML. I began to accompany her to hospital appointments and there, Doña Amalia and her husband Glenn Dewey, who had been my professor at the university, contacted us to start a support group. Thus AGALEMO was born. About two years later a pharmacist who worked with Novartis started coming to our meetings and getting us doctors to give us talks. In 2003 we already became a legalized organization. In 2005 we began to attend the meetings of Alianza Latina and in 2007 to the meetings of the CML Advocates Network. We were forced to file amparo appeals so that Silvia had access to Nilotinib and Dasatinib, which now benefits all CML patients in Costa Rica since they are part of the normal treatment for 100% of the patients.
