SLC Conv--Parent Support Meetings

[Guest guest]

Just a note to thank EVERYONE who helped participate the Parent Support Groups

at this year's Convention in Salt Lake City. We were extremely gratified and

excited to see so many parents of children with short stature become so involved

in the morning support groups and evening social. There were excellent

discussions, informative topics and great contributions from all--but most

important was receiving the strong support in sharing our hopes, fears,

concerns, accomplishments, etc., with other people who can actually understand

what we're experiencing.

We loved being a part of the 2002 Convention and hope each district and chapter

will continue to strengthen all LPA-affiliated individuals by continued events

that help us bond with one another throughout the year.

We would love to hear/receive any feedback (positive or negative) regarding the

Parent Support Meetings either on the listserve or at our own addresses:

kristyslc@...

or

garison.jeppesen@...

We made a lot of great friendships and we'll see you all in Boston next year!!

Sincerely,

Kristy and Garison Jeppesen
