While everyone is still checking out the various advocacy stations I trapped Pandora (again) along with Jennifer, Sarah and Pam… Sarah and Pam are very active with the inner working with the OAC, but Sarah talked about what she’s learned as part of the OAC and carrying that over in to other areas of her life in advocating for other diseases. Pam reflected on the new friends she’s made and how she was immediately able to put what she learned this weekend to use.
Jennifer, despite being tired, was looking forward taking what she learned back home with her, but maybe more importantly, because of feedback she received from others is how important it is to keep being who she is.
