Hi,

I was there at our local Thal. Convention on Thal. Day; but I didn't take a picture of the Health Minister giving her speech as we see this lady blabbing far too much on the t.v already :raspberries

They just want any kind of photo of us?  ???  Or did we have to participate in some kind of event?

Hi once again,

Sorry If my post sounded somewhat confusing, but I will clarify.

We are currently putting together our newsletter and wanted to put together an article of how International Thalassaemia Day May 8th 2008 was celebrated in different parts of the world. So if anybody participated in anything either independently (i.e: with family and friends over dinner OR via society participation i.e: media release, donor thank you session or an information stall) why dont you put together a few words and post them on here, if you have photos to go along even better.

Once our newsletter is complete we will forward you a copy. We do thank you in advance for your efforts and we think its a great way of showing our community here how others celebrated such a beautiful day in different parts of the world and what it means for all.

Miaki  :thankyou

I had posted about the convention in this post:

http://www.thalassemiapatientsandfriends.com/index.php?topic=1457.msg14056#msg14056

But it's our little secret that should stay on Thalpal.com and not to be read by authorities especially our Health Minister :biggrin

Anyway, I'll try to contact the shutter bug who was taking the snaps of everyone (including me with my doctor) and our children's  performance.

Me too Zaini,

When I got the pictures I just zipped through all of them searching for the one in which I was with my Doctor; without even looking at these snaps. :biggrin Too bad it didn't get developed on the roll.

You can find me in the site Gallery anytime :grin

Great pictures Sajid - it's nice to see how many people came out recognized thalassemia day.

It would be nice to have seen you and your doctor in the pictures - but these are great.
