GREAT thought, Jan. He's already based there.... has access to the ANA "Hotline" to discuss and if it's up to us to drop the hint.......

*ponders thought :) *

David also had his surgery @ HEI, and they are sponsoring the symposium. So there's an additional tie-in.

Post by: LADavid on August 04, 2012, 12:19:32 pm: Wow again. Thank you so much everyone for your kind words and book purchases. I do hope you like it -- it was mainly written for Aners. As for speaking at the Symposium -- I would be honored to and glad to -- but I may be a bit too controversial since I took a bit of a swipe at medical practitioners. We shall see. Thank you all again!

Post by: New girl on August 04, 2012, 03:30:11 pm: I read mine in two days! I thought it was great! I was sad to read the struggles - I do think it is an excellent resource for ANers at all stages. Best wishes.

Post by: MDemisay on August 06, 2012, 12:33:20 pm: Congratulations LADavid on being an inspiration to all of us! Making it known and digestible to the general public that just because an AN's effects can't be readily observable that it is less important a diagnosis, it is important because it happens within our brains! It should be a best seller!

Glad to know that. When we used to talk, I knew you were very dissatisfied with the practitioners you were seeing, but I wasn't sure if you'd "go there" in the book.
