Thanks for the info Marsha. I didn't notice that they were one of the

co-sponsors but will now be certain to introduce myself to them at the exhibit

hall. And, of course, pick up a business card or two for any future need

that might arise....

Since you brought this expo up..... I would like to take the opportunity to

mention to everyone that I will be attending this expo on behalf of the new

nonprofit organization, the National Uterine Fibroids Foundation. We are

anticipating incorporation to occur very soon (within the next week, perhaps!)

and I have already made arrangements to share an exhibit booth with

, the founder and President of Uterine Fibroid Foundation, Inc. out of

North Carolina. If you are planning on attending this conference, please stop

by

our booth to say hello.

Also, I am working on both the website and a poster for the National Uterine

Fibroids Foundation (NUFF) and am in desperate need of photographs. If you are

someone who has been helped by a treatment for your uterine fibroids and have

photographs of an " active " you today, I would certainly like to place them on

the

NUFF poster or on the NUFF website. If you have the ability to send me a .jpeg

online, please do. If not, you can snail mail me your photos to:

Carla Dionne

NUFF photos

1132 Lucero Street

Camarillo, CA 93010

Please include a brief note giving me permission to use your photograph and

indicating that you do not require payment for the use of the photograph

(because

I can't afford to pay!!!!). I've attached a sample photo of me and my son

rollerblading so that you can get an idea of what I'm looking for. The poster

will ideally be a collage of women participating in an active lifestyle -- the

one thing we all hope for with finally getting treatment for our uterine

fibroids. I want it to be a poster of " hope " with the logo " It's all about....

Quality of Life " and would certainly like to include as many photos of women I

know as possible. Won't you please help?

As soon as NUFF is incorporated, its website home will be the following:

http://www.NUFF.org

It's " under construction " right now, but will be unveiled the day we officially

incorporate. Bookmark it for future reference.

One more request, if there any women in the LA region who have had their

hemoglobin restored to normal after treatment of their uterine fibroids, will

you

please contact me? I need your help in participating in a blood drive with Red

Cross as part of the public announcement of NUFF. Time to give back some blood

on behalf of all of the women who have required transfusions due to their

uterine

fibroids, don't you think? Email or call me if you'd like to participate.
