To all those awaiting results; those newly diagnosed; those undergoing treatment; all those with loved ones who have MDS; all those recently - or not so recently - bereaved; to those in remission, and to those given the coveted all-clear.

We wanted to let you know that we will be thinking of you this festive season, and we send you our commitment and love.

And to all those who are contributing to MDS UK Patient Group, a big big Thank You. You are essential and amazing.

Take extra good care of yourselves.

MDS UK team and Committee Members
