Guest guest Posted March 25, 2007 Report Share Posted March 25, 2007 Taken from another forum (two, in fact !) : I wanted to announce you a great big good news : the birth of the International Thyroid Patient Organisation ( or ITPO ) . Thyroid patients from all over the world have got together and decided to create this to have all thyroid patients united together in one movement so that we have a big lobby power and can better fight for better treatment . We have teamed up with the good doctors of the world who are fighting together with us , and in particular Dr. Thierry Hertoghe and the International Hormone Society ( IHS ) . If we stand together , the patients and the doctors , we will win ! I hope that very very many of you will participate and subscribe . Actually it's not about money , the membership is free and no strings attached . It's about helping the patients , and also the doctors , because as may here probably know , the doctors who help us ( for example by prescribing natural thyroid ) are often persecuted and many have lost their license for treating their patients right ! We absolutly have to put an end to that ! It's intolerable that doctors are forced out of business because they save their patients' lifes , and also if it continues like that , we patients may soon not find any good doctors any more ! For example Dr. Skinner in the UK is right now in that situation and needs our help , just as we patients need him ! With 1000 , 2000 , ..... 3000 members or more the ITPO will be very powerfull and they WILL listen to us ! Something like this has never existed , an association federating all thyroid patients of the world together . I don't know why . Probably someone just had to think of it to get it started . It should have existed since a long time . Here is where you can subscribe : http://intlhormones ociety.org/ index.php? option=com_content& task=view& id=85&Itemid= 108 Or , in case the link is to long to show up right , you can also go to http://intlhormones ociety.org , it's right there on the frontpage . When you click on " patient " , you see two possibilities : you can become member of the Thyroid Patient Organisation , and you can also become a member of the IHS . If you wish to support hormone therapy in general , you are very welcome to become a member of the patient section of the IHS . Membership is equally free . ------ And you can of course also become member of both ! ;-) I hope that I can count on your cooperation and that we will reach the 1000 very soon . Everbody can make a difference ! ne _________________________________________________________________ Découvrez le Blog heroic Fantaisy d'Eragon! http://eragon-heroic-fantasy.spaces.live.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
