The Singapore Conference: Are you more likely to go if Andy is going?

<< < (6/7) > >>

Andy Battaglia:
Manal,

TIF conferences are the big ones. They draw the most top doctors and researchers. I have not seen a lineup at any regional conference that matches the international conferences. But even more important, is TIF is where the patients go and for me that is so important. Meeting and talking with patients is what the conferences are all about. Very few patients attend the medical presentations. It's not why they're there. They do attend the presentations aimed at patients and parents, but the social interaction with each other, the comparison of treatment in different countries, and just getting a chance to meet each other and see how other thals are doing is great for morale and developing friendships. If not for the fact that I have met so many people in person and made so many friends, I probably would not still be active in this group, as I don't have any personal involvement with any thals in my own life.

Manal:
I can understand now Andy, may God bless you. :hugfriend

Praying that you will attend this conference

Hi Everyone,

My name is Sylvia and I work for Resonance Health, provider of FerriScan. I happened to come across your site while doing some research online. As I read through this thread, I realised some of you are enquiring on FerriScan.

I am here to help and provide any information you need on FerriScan. I will do my best in assisting and if there is anything that I can't answer, I'm sure someone in the office would have the answer.

I sincerely apologise for any inconvenience that Resonance has caused in terms of lack of communication in the last 18 months.

We are back on track right now :) You can count on me if you need any information. I also look forward to forming new friendships here in this forum.

PS: We would be attending TIF in Singapore in Oct. Our Chief Scientific Officer, also the founder of FerriScan, Dr Tim St Pierre would be attending the conference. Other company represetatives to be confirmed nearer to date.

Rgds,
Sylvia Goh

Andy Battaglia:
Hi Sylvia and welcome,

We have long been proponents of Ferriscan and I was able to meet with the rep that was at the Dubai conference in 2006. We have a listing for Ferriscan in our section on Treatment centers, at http://www.thalassemiapatientsandfriends.com/index.php?topic=259.0

Can you look this over and let me know if there are any corrections or additions to the links and locations? I can make any necessary changes if you let me know what's needed.

If I make it to Singapore, I'll be sure to stop by your booth and say hello.

Sylvia:
Hi Andy

Thanks....I will have a look on what's posted. I'm also a regular on the other thal site, assisting everyone with FerriScan information and updates :)

In future, I will post FerriScan information on both sites and I'm very moved by the strong support everyone is providing as this is my first time in contact with Thalassaemia and being on this job has greatly opened my eyes to many things.

Sylvia
