A big thank you to Dr. Comenzo for his appearance as guest speaker at our meeting, answering questions and sharing his hopes and thoughts. How lucky we are in this unlucky world of rare disease to have doctors like Dr. Comenzo working tirelessly for treatment and cure. We look forward to the next visit in February 2009. Watch the website for details. Our Guest – Dr. John Berk from Boston University Medical Center was brilliant, down to earth and so caring and kind….we hope he returns to the Big Apple Soon… http://www.bu.edu/amyloid/doctors/index.html http://www.bu.edu/amyloid/doctors/trials/index.html Dr. Angela Dispenzieri – Mayo/Rochester was wonderful and we had Dr. Jonathan Bromberg the Transplant Coordinator of Mt.Sinai drop by along with Dr. Del Rio. We thank Dr. Comenzo so much for your kindness, generosity and time that he so willingly gave to us at our New York Support Meeting Today…….We learned a lot and gained much support from his wonderful spirit. We had 49 people (cousin Kenny counted:=) and all were so grateful.
