Press Event in support of Weight Loss Surgery

Hi All,

Because of the limbo status of the weight loss bill, we were thinking about setting up a press event to call attention to the worthiness of the bill.  The event would be most successful if the message the press heard was from you -  people who have had or are considering the surgery.  We would set everything up -- we'd just like to feature anyone and everyone who felt comfortable to say a few words to get the word out (much like the 60 Minutes peice earlier this year). 

Would anyone be interested in taking part (it could be as early as next week)? Of course, you DON'T have to be (or have been) a patient of our program -- we are just looking for any NH residents who feel strongly about this.

You can email me at [email protected] if you feel more comfortable than posting.

Best regards,

I would be willing to help out if I am available on the day - so let me know when and what you would need.

I can help too.  I didn't have my surgery in NH, though.  It was at Tufts.  But I'm a NH resident.

Great idea-- I wish I could attend but don't have any time off available from work right now.

Thanks to those who said they would help out in the press event (as well as if you'd like to, but can't!).  We still don't know if and when this will occur, but I will keep you updated.  Thanks again, and the invitation to help out still stands!!

Best regards,
