Living a full and active life is a positive, realistic goal for people with hemophilia. One of the most important steps you can take toward this goal is following your child's treatment plan.

Following your treatment plan can have many benefits. Your child can live with fewer limits and less pain when treatment regimens are followed carefully and bleeds are treated quickly.

Help your child stick with his plan

It’s not always easy to follow a treatment plan. Busy lives, job schedules, school activities and family issues can all complicate the process.

This section of thereforyou.com is designed to help you find ways to stick with your child's plan. There are suggestions for overcoming barriers as well as tips for making it easier to follow your plan. You’ll also find a sample Treatment Log to help you and your child track bleeds and infusions.

Note: thereforyou.com does not recommend a particular treatment for specific individuals and recommends that you consult your treatment center or physician before pursuing any course of treatment.
