http://www.mslaw.edu Assistant Dean Diane Sullivan documents her personal struggle with AL Amyloidosis, a rare hematological disorder and the stem cell transplant that saved her life.

Professor Sullivan, along with her closest friends and family, bring us with them as Diane journeys from diagnosis through multiple phases of treatment to recovery, on this episode of The Massachusetts School of Law's Educational Forum.

The episode includes detailed conversations, with Dr. David Seldin MD, Chief of Hematology and Oncology at BU Medical Center, and Dr. Vaishali Sanchorawala MD, Clinical Director of the stem cell transplantation program at BU Medical Center. Diane, the doctors and her family discuss the treatment process, including cryotherapy and Mucositis, chemotherapy as well as the differences between and benefits of Allogenic stem cell transplants and Autogenic stem cell transplants, as well as the importance of early diagnosis.

Professor Sullivan details how family, close friends, and colleagues were crucial to her process, and concludes with a list of lessons learned from the experience; laugh as much as possible, be kind, stay strong, hold onto hope, and have no self pity.

Professor Sullivan has returned to teaching at MSL and to walking her beloved dogs.
