Title: moyamoya awareness month
Post by teetee on Mar 3rd, 2005 at 3:14am
What do you think of pin-pointing a month and making it moya moya awareness month, and everyone can go to their local newspapers and put a catching title to grab viewers attention to read about mm???  Maybe someone could write the article and we all can use the same article?  I was noticing how everyone in the mm family lives in different parts of the states.  This could be a start to something.....Any ideas?     :-/

I certainly would volunteer to write the article.  But if someone else would like to do it, then that is fine, too.

Great idea! How would we pick the month? I could help with editing.

I don't know but perhaps a SPRING month.  Like April or May.  Spring time reminds me of new beginnings.  What a beautiful season!  May would give us more time to prepare and be ready?  I just know people need to know about mm.

  Sounds great.I believe May is pediatric stroke awareness month. At least I know of a group who has been trying to get this passed. We would need to write to local and federal govenment officials I believe.

Oh that is good Mary Grace.  I believe you are right in the fact that we would have to go to the government for this.  I'm glad you thought of that.

I;m from Melbourne Australia and I would love to something over here as it is very rare for someone to have MM over this side of the world.

This is such a wonderful idea.  I wouldn't know where or who to write to.  If anyone finds this information, lemme know and I'll jump on this as well.
