Re: What can we do about the delay of TDM-1

10/16/10 Metastatic Breast Cancer Network conference in Indiana
I am 3 hours away and will be going.

We should be able to launch a media campain from this conference.

I can write letters to the editor about the people I meet there and the effect the FDA rulling will have on their life. I will try the Wallstreet journal and the Indy Star.

If we could do video interviews of women who would have started theatment we could put it on youtub. I don't know how to do that. I can run a vido camera and maybe interview willing women at the conference.

My daughter is a marketing person. Maybe I can get her to go with

The November elections are not far off. Go to rallys and debates and hang around till the end and meet the people who our running for office. They need to see are faces and feel our hand in theirs. We need them to remember us and our story.
