So it looks like we CAians will be organizing a patient conference to take place at the same hotel as ILADS next October but one day earlier- so we can all get together & try & get activist together and share patient recovery stories & health tips & just meet fellow LymeNetters!!!
If you want to be a part of it, start saving money for the ILADS conference- it is in San Francisco next OCTOBER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You can meet all your favorite doctors AND learn a lot.
If you want to meet Phyllis Mervine & Robin123 & me & MIchelle M (who BETTER be there OR ELSE!!!!) and other CAians, then mark it on your calendars! (I mean it Michelle M*)!!! OR ELSE*)!!! Or else, um, I don't know what, but SOMETHING!!!! Best wishes, Sarah

sarah,
SERIOUSLY, this sounds interesting; I'd LOVE to meet you all, etc.
PLEASE SHOW THE SPECIFIC DATE OF YOURS and ILADS TOO.

I'm NOT telling hubby about this one for quite some time; I can hear him growling already!
Oct. 5 is our anniversary; 3rd is his birthday so hope the date IS NOT THEN!!!

Yay Monty*)!)*! Yay Kelmo*)!*)! Yay MM*)!!!!!!!!!
I will post more details on this thread as they come up!!! I think we are going to have workshops and then hopefully a big lunch in a lunch room where we can all hobknob (whatever that means*)! But we shall see!!
Just start saving!!!!!!! My house is too far to offer free room & board (2+ hours away, I'll be staying at hotel myself*)! but the hotel is supposed to be affordable & we can double up if need be or want!
So not only can you attend ILADS (I'll post their conference info when they post it! don't know how much it is $ wise) but have fun with us patients. See you there*)! Sincerely, Sarah
