Anne,

Do we have any potential dates? My calendar seems to fill up quickly, but I want to make sure that this event is on it. [:D]

I look forward to meeting all of you gals there. I have not been a part of the site for long, in fact, just found you mid February, but already blessed tenfold by the Foundation and want to dive in headfirst.

Ok I need a play weekend away, so when are all these conferences, going to be? I would love to meet everyone, and I figure if I buy airfare to somewhere then I can't back out LOL, let me know if anyone has updates!!!!!

Kim, mom to Shelby 32 weeker due to pree-e, and hellp, now a crazy 2 year old!!!

Thanks for the compliment to WV, Anne. Even though I've lived in PA for 4 years, I'll always be a West Virginia girl. I hope to see you there.

Bethany, West Virginia which is near Wheeling. I may be able to attend but not yet sure.

It would be great though to get our East Coast members (and anyone who needs an excuse to see beautiful West Virginia) together.

I THINK the HELLP Syndome Society's conference will be held somewhere in the vicinty of Wheeling, West Virginia. That is where they are headquartered.

I live near there, and I work in Wheeling, so if anyone has any questions about how to get here, where to stay, what to do, etc etc please let me know.

I hope to see lots of you there, as well as at the PF's annual meeting.

Where on the East Coast would the conference be?

BTW-I DO love the idea of wearing badges with our aliases on it. Also bring LOTS of pictures!!!

Oh no, it is tentatively planned for June 18-20. I don't think those dates are solid yet. Maybe you could propose an alternative weekend.

Sharel,

On what dates in June is the HELLP conference? We are at a conference in Arizona between June 18-24, and we would really hate to miss the Preeclampsia meeting.

Oh, that's great (about the HSS meeting). I have agreed to help them with it. I'd love to see some of you there.

We're gonna have to put our names & our Forum aliases on our name badges, so we know who we are! LOL

At the very least--we will have a Diva Weekend!! But we are just getting started trying to plan something. If you are on the East Coast, the HELLP Syndrome Society is hosting a conference as well in June. We are discussing co-sponsoring that as well so you would have two options to choose from. Encourage you all to email me your thoughts but yes--we will be meeting up with ALL y'all. No bowing though--hurts my knees.

Take care,
