This live chat, called <em>Living with CML</em>, runs for two hours every Tuesday evening from 8:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. ET. <em>Living with CML</em> joins the long-running <em>Living with NHL: Gaining a Sense of Balance</em> chat, which runs every Monday and Wednesday evening from 8:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. ET.</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p>Each chat session is hosted and run by an IRC Moderator, who is responsible for making sure that chat participants stay on topic and are respectful of each other and differing opinions. The purpose of each chat is to provide patients a safe place to discuss their stresses and triumphs through any aspect of their experience with CML or NHL.</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p><a class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://www.leukemia-lymphoma.org/all_page.adp?item_id=386151">Learn more about live online chat</a>, and <a class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://www.leukemia-lymphoma.org/all_page?item_id=387289">visit the registration page to sign up for either chat</a>.</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p>Not sure online chat is for you, but you still want to connect with other patients?
