Re: Check out the PAI's gift shop

Jeannine,

I thought about you when I was reading your post about being in the ER, and

the way you experienced pain. It was interesting that the doctor explained

the anatomical placement of the pancreas. It helps to understand the pain.

Well, you might get a kick out of our new gift shop. Go to <A

http://www.cafeshops.com/pancassociation</A>

There are flying frisbi's, coffee mugs, tote bags, hats, shirts, and more all

with a cross section of a pancreas (and labeled, ta' boot), the exocrine /

endocrine system, and our logo. There are also several items that have our

young member, Jackie's, " My Pancreas and Me " . They are all cute, fun,

practical, although I am not sure if I really want a lunch box with a cross

section of my pancreas on it. I just thought it would make interesting table

talk.

The products are good quality. This company, CafePress, provides this

services as a fund raiser tool for organizations.

Check out the PAI bumper stickers. they are cool!

Oh, my point to you Jeanine, was that you may notice form the pancreas on

these items that there is that slope..or is it sloop?

Karyn - you are right. The products look great and it will be a wonderful

way to promote the Pancreatitis Association International. I am very

impressed with the quality of the products and how nice the logo and pictures

look on them. I especially like Jackie's picture - it is sad a child so

young has to deal with this disease, but it will certainly advance awareness

that this disease is more wide-spread than the general public knows. You did

a very nice job,
