Teri and Nancy, 

 

It was great to meet you both at HOH.  I'm sad I didn't get to meet fellow poster Ellen as well!  I am in awe of everything you two do.  I am worn out from my days of training, advocacy and travel.  I am so thankful you two are out there to carry on and gather all the information we need to know while I get to come home and rest.  I do feel kind of guilty about it though.... Kind of.  Wink

Julie!

 

I have to tell you, SINCERELY, that the best part of the week was meeting you and you husband, knowing that you'd made enough progress in your treatent to be able to attend Headache on the Hill. Girl, that made my day, my week! It really was my best moment of this entire trip. The American Headache Society conference ended this morning,  but I'm staying in the DC area for a couple of days longer, partly to work at the HealthCentral offices. When I get home, I want to touch bases with you.

 

Again, I'm so very happy you could come!

 

hugs,

Teri

Thanks for your sweet message, Teri!  Getting a chance to meet you in person, after relying on you for information and support for all these years, was pretty darn cool for me and my husband too!  Smile

 

When you get a chance to get home and rest, we'll definitely talk.  

 

Love,

Julie

Going to Headache on the Hill is something I'd love to be able to do IF my head would cooperate. Thank you for all you do on behalf of all of us who can't do that kind of thing ourselves. Great photos too.

 

Warmly,

Erik
