amyjoy Posted April 5, 2012 Report Posted April 5, 2012 Please don't sit at home and wish you could pull the funds together to attend the symposium! A number of PANDAS parents and family members, plus a growing number of corporate sponsors have made funds available so that we can offer scholarships and some support to people that want to attend. None of us can make it alone. We all know how stressful and isolating it is to be in our position. Many of us are financially tapped out. Please let us support you in going - we have some funds right now. You will HAPPY you went to the Symposium...it is going to be a rich environment for us all to connect, in person, with each other and alot of great info and material about PANDAS. info is on the website www.pandasparentsymposium.blogspot.com Meanwhile, my DS just got his tonsils out today, and I'm tired. But I feel like we're over a big hump. Thanks for listening. amy
PowPow Posted April 5, 2012 Report Posted April 5, 2012 Have you thought about making cds of the talks? Or making them available online, even as a fundraiser for dr cunningham or something? I cannot be.there, but I want to hear what missed!
fightingmom Posted April 5, 2012 Report Posted April 5, 2012 (edited) That's so great. I would love to go, but looked into it and it would have cost me over $1000 in transportation and hotel as I am east coast. It's really amazing that you are putting this together. I think the CD idea is a great idea. Hope you son recovers well! Edited April 5, 2012 by fightingmom
amyjoy Posted April 5, 2012 Author Report Posted April 5, 2012 maybe we can do something like the cd's, i will look into it. many miracles are coming together for it. what if we could help with the room and you could share it with someone? would that help you come?
amyjoy Posted April 7, 2012 Author Report Posted April 7, 2012 We have had some requests for scholarships, and have more to give away at the moment. We can also help a few people with the hotel, if you don't mind sharing a suite. So please ask while we still have the resources to help. Where did we get this generous scholarship grant?? From Kedrion, the makers of the Gammaked (=Gammunex IVIg) that we use!! And its right that they should give back to us. Ha, its like, our own money coming back, kind of like, taxes. So - please ask before it runs out. Hope to see you amy
