Hi Never give up hope, I'm going also to the King of Prussia conference. Let me know if you want to meet there before the conference or have lunch/dinner. I sent an e-mail to the hotel asking for attendee discounts - I'll let you know what they say. I'm driving from the Washington, DC area.

Oh fooey! The Houston one already passed and there aren't any in the Dallas area. I'm in DFW and would LOVE to attend one too! Thank God that Phil Mickelson is bringing a LOT more attention (and hopefully more money for the development of new meds) to this illness!! I'll be sure to catch the next one that's in Texas! An Austin one would be great! Thanks so much for sharing this with us! ---

Sure would be nice if every once in a while they had one a little closer to the middle of nowhere...would love to attend one, but I am 300 miles from the nearest one...I hope that if anyone of us does get to attend that they will share what they learned here. Gentle hugs to all! ---
