**********************
By now many of you have heard that our next PSC Partners Seeking a Cure conference will be held in Jacksonville, FL. Many members from our support group were at the conference in Denver. Everyone there was excited to learn that research is on the brink of some real breakthroughs. The experts let us know that now is the time to raise enough money to back the most promising research and also to get the attention of the new, young researchers eager to use the new information that is emerging.
We are making real progress at getting people to hear us and as we work to help ourselves, others will come to our aid. We encourage everyone to join us in this effort where we are the ones with the most to gain. It is ourselves, our loved ones and the newly diagnosed to come who might have a better treatment and avoid a liver transplant if we back medical research. It is those who have been transplanted who might avoid a second transplant if we can prevent recurrence of PSC with better treatments.
For those who are struggling with the next dollar, those of us who can, will raise in your honor. Everyone who raises $50 from family and friends can buy a mile!! As the year goes on we can all share our ideas on raising money from bake sales to change jars on counters. From penny drives to "nickel and dime me" parties. Be creative; be positive, we can do it because we are together in the fight, whatever it takes. Let's get started!
