I also think that is a great article. Like Jenn, I found it when I started researching HELLP and have it in my favorites yet today.

That's the first article I found on the internet after I had HELLP in 2001. It's really an excellent article, especially considering it's 5+ years old. It's the only one I've really found that gives a good in-depth explanation of the disease, and it's so wonderfully understandable.

Here is an article on HELLP syndrome from the American Academy of Family Physicians. Has there been any contact with this organization and/or author of this article? It dates back to 1999.
