We just returned from the Dystonia Symposium held in Birmingham, Alabama yesterday, April 8, 2011. It was SPECTACULAR!! Thanks to UAB, Dr. David Standaert, Dr. Harrison Walker, Dr. Natividad Stover and Dr. Matt Ford for giving about 35 people in attendance their undivided attention. In addition, thanks to Mr. Tom Brannan and Ms. Kate Tully for their participation in getting this symposium organized. We were also given the opportunity to walk through the labs that are devoted to research on Dystonia and other movement disorders. It really was a remarkable opportunity to see some of the 'behind the scenes' activity. And we cannot forget the one that spearheaded the entire idea and that was Mr. Ken Williams. He is one man that is the most dedicated person to the cause of educating the entire world on the condition called Dystonia!! THANKS TO EVERYONE FOR A JOB WELL DONE!!
Our next meeting in Dothan, Alabama is scheduled for Saturday, May 14, 2011. We hope to have a great turnout. We will have many things to discuss along with seeing how everyone is doing.
Until then, have a great month! Enjoy the weather and HAPPY EASTER to all!!
