Spring 2013 Patient Education Symposium

Wow, what a great program everyone...lots of new people, Area Manager, Facility Manager,Vendors, a Doctor,etc. at the event. Great job, Troyce as Masters of Ceremony, you always do a masterful job of keeping things alive and moving! Great job team, with everyone working together in various roles contributing to this event. Thank you Kidney Foundation for the critical funding to make the event happen and to the Renal Network folks & patient advisory members present. Many of the comments were tearful and touching, heart felt. It was fun to honor so many patients, care supporters, and donors, it has been said that when you honor others, you also honor yourself; so you all are worthy of the highest honor...Congratulations on a job well done!!


Hope to see you everyone at the Picnic on August 11, 2013 from 1 to 4pm.
