A Note from the Executive Director
  
What a way to kick-off the summer!

 
Great Lakes Hemophilia Foundation

Headline News - July 2010

 

Sandy Lampman

We hope you enjoyed the Wisconsin Bleeding Disorders Conference as much as we did in planning and implementing it!  From the kick-off session by Phil Kucab, to the ethics panel, to the ask-the-doctor session, and the healthcare reform update, the planning committee worked hard to ensure the information we shared was relevant and helpful. 

 

The energy from the youth sessions carried over to dinner when we all enjoyed the international skits, the Irish dancers and the impromptu Latino music!  After all the education, networking and entertainment, it is hard to believe most of you still had the energy to hit the water park!

 

For those of you who could not attend this year, we hope you’ll join us next year for Life’s A Stage - Act Two. We are committed to offering up-to-date medical information and other sessions that are relevant to individuals and families living with bleeding disorders as well as information that may enhance your general health and well-being. Please let us know if you have ideas for sessions, speakers and locations that you would like us to consider, info@glhf.org. Your suggestions will help us build on the success of this year’s conference and ensure that the 2011 Wisconsin Bleeding Disorders Conference has the information and opportunities that are most relevant to you.

 

Thanks for helping us build a strong, positive and vital bleeding disorders community in Wisconsin.

 

Enjoy the summer,

 

Sandy
