Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Re: THANKS Melissa. PLEASE READ EVERYONE!

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!
