It was the final Lymphedema Patient Roundtable of 2025, wrapped in a little Lymphmas cheer! The panel came together for a warm, insightful hour covering everything from managing holiday stress to navigating the chilly season with lymphedema.
They discussed boundary-setting, winter routines, and the small joys that kept them grounded, while attendees chimed in with thoughtful comments and questions. The group reflected on their wins and challenges from 2025, shared gentle goals for the new year, and upheld their annual tradition of asking: What are you wishing for from Lymphie Santa this year?
If you’re looking for support, inspiration, or a touch of seasonal sparkle, this Lymphmas edition of the Roundtable is one you won’t want to miss.
