Guest guest Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 Sue Alzheimer disease can happen with those with Down syndrome. We do not have any research that indicates MDS, but we do assume that it can happen. I, of course, did not include every single thing that can happen with MDS, because there are such a list of things! Kristy Sue wrote: Kristy, I was reading the flyers to be give out.

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 Hi there You know Kristy, i knew when you had me start all the pages for the site, that that date rang a bell, considering last year I spent hours with assisting - (yeah ok, writing) his speech for Harmony Day for March 21 Harmony Day, occurs on 21 March each year and celebrates Australia's success as a diverse society celebrating its commitment to racial respect and community harmony. Its also The International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination. Also, for any of us from Australia, can you please contact me first prior to making a team, (if you are thinking of making one). Cheers mum to scott 10mds and emily 8 Kristy Colvin wrote: Great Sue!

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2008 Report Share Posted January 29, 2008 Hi More than likely you added a space before the email because you copied and pasted it. try typing out genesday@... in the " Paypal email " section. I just tested it and it works for me! Be sure to give your team link to at mosaicdownsyndrome@... BTW...I just wanted to make a note...many people in the past have wanted to contribute to IMDSA through the Buddy Walks that the NDSS do. Because we are seperate organizations, we made Genes Day so that you can participate, raise awareness and still contribute to IMDSA! We have a goal of $10,000 to raise for this event. I assured our board members that this will not be a problem with all of our members coming together and making their own teams! So, if you haven't yet made a team, please do so now! It is fun and it is easy to do! Also...the top three fundraising teams will receive a fantastic amount of prizes! My house is filling up with boxes!!!! We have loads of VERY EXPENSIVE books, dvd sets, cds, and other learning materials! If you haven't made a team go to www.imdsa.com/genesday.htm for all the details!
