I am thrilled to see "we" have a band.
I printed out the form and will be ordering a couple for myself.

Have a great day!

And we are thrilled too!!!!

Thank you so much Melissa for bringing this up. We hope everyone who frequents these boards will, like you, want one. By purchasing your (Periwinkle) IBS Awareness Bracelet you are showing support, helping raise public awareness, and helping fund IBS education.

We, the organizers of the Las Vegas Fall Sprawl 2005, an educational/social meeting have personally gone to a lot of expense to provide these for availability to all on the boards. We first had to special order them in Periwinkle color, the National awareness color for IBS ( plus Eating Disorders, Esophageal Cancer,
GERD, & Pulmonary Hypertension). In addition we did not put the words IBS on them for obvious reasons. Hundreds of dollars came out of each of our own personal pockets just to purchase these.

Every single penny of profit will go to fund both IBS education and the Fall Sprawl conference in Oct., open to all with IBS who are on this diet or want to learn more and meet others with IBS. It is a daunting and expensive task to say the least, to be able to put on a meeting of this magnitude. The 4 of us will be working round the clock from now till Oct. to make it an enjoyable and significant meeting for all that attend. Our first meeting last year was good, but this year it will be GREAT! And the best part? HEATHER will be there!!! We hope all who can will join us.

And even if you unfortunately can't join us in Oct. please support us by purchasing a bracelet...we desperately need your help!

Please visit our website, http://www.ibsfallsprawl.com for more information and how to order your bracelet...We've made it easy to buy them.....check, cash, MO, Paypal....take your pick..and only $3.00, includes shipping!

Thank you,
Kandee

is there a discount on ordering multiple bracelets (as in less shipping, not in the cost of the bracelets itself)?

just curious... not ordering anything until we know status at the end of the week.

I'm not Kandee... but can give it a go

If you go to this form for MAIL ORDERShttp://www.ibsfallsprawl.com/braceletorderform.pdf which you can also get on the website, there ARE price breaks... and the shipping is included so no matter how many you order it will not cost you anymore.

I am also thrilled about the bracelets. I'm going to print out the form and order one for me and one for my cousin, who also suffers from IBS.

I'm sorry to say that I'll have to miss the Fall Sprawl this year. Too many big expenses in my life right now to afford the trip, but I will be thinking of all of you and looking forward to seeing the pictures!!!

I guess this is a strange question, but do these bands come in different sizes? I know some of the other ones on the market do, but I didn't see that on the order form. I ask because my wrist and hands are small, and the Live Strong and breast cancer bands I have literally fall off my wrist.... I know it's very weird. Just a question, I'm ordering some either way, but I'd like to wear one too not just give them to my family.

Alicia:

NOT a strange question AT ALL.... just one more thing to let Webmaster Jennifer Rose know that we should note somewhere that they are ADULT in size. We wish you could wear one too!!

Thanks in advance for your order and support!!

Oops.. better add that!

On that subject, I have small hands and wrists too. Luckily, the loose bangle bracelets are coming back in style.

And at the risk of sounding like a cheesy infomercial, my bracelet has helped me kick my nail biting habit. Whenever I get nervous now, I play with my bracelet.

...but I'd love to order a pin, if you guys have those! I can't wear the bracelets (wrists too small, LOL ) but I'd love a pin of the same color, if it's being offered! I can wear those with a business suit too, which is great since all I'm in nowaways are either pajamas or pearls!

Oooohhh! Pins! I would love one for my bookbag pin collection, but I am sure that the vegas divas have their hands full enough getting rid of all those bands! Maybe they will next year.... ?

I'm more than happy to place an order to support the cause! You girls do a lot for this board and the sprawls! It's the least we can do!!!

Can't make the fall sprawl for a couple of reasons. 1. we just went to Disney in April and that was pretty much our vacation for the year Yikes is Disney expensive!!!
2. I mentioned before that it's very hard for us that have younger children. My hubby and I don't have parents that are willing to come and stay with them as it's the beginning of the school year and they will be in school. Someday when they are older and in college is when we can just up and go and travel...until then, gotta miss out on these great trips Sorry...............

Lots of luck with the orders!!!

Aww, thanks Lisa! Well, hopefully when we get bigger, things will get cheaper. We'd love to be able to get a group discount rate on a group of rooms at a hotel, but you gotta find enough people who want to stay at the same hotel. LOL Not easy when everyone has their own tastes.

I am sooo jealous about the Disney vacation! My boyfriend and I were averaging about one trip to Disneyland in Anaheim, CA a year, but this year gotta save for our trip to Seattle and then the Vegas trip. Maybe next year...
