Over 5,000 people signed the petition to the U.S. Senate to declare March 6 World Lymphedema Day. On March 3, thanks your efforts and the backing of Senators Charles Schumer and Chuck Grassley, the U.S. Senate unanimously declared March 6 World Lymphedema Day. The effort was echoed in government bodies around country and around the world.
