The Summer/Fall 2010 volume of our quarterly newsletter, "Antiphospho...What??" is ready to be downloaded

Hello, we hope this email finds you well!!

Thank you to everyone who celebrated World APS Day with us on June 9th, APS Awareness month in June and for your continued support! Both events were a HUGE success!!

The SPRING/SUMMER 2010 volume of our quarterly newsletter, "Antiphospho...What??" is ready to be downloaded. You can download it at the following link: http://www.apsfa.org/docs/APSFAVol18SumFall10.pdf

The next volume will be coming out in November, 2010.

We are in need of non-patient story articles for upcoming newsletters such as book reviews, poems, recipes, and articles written by children, spouses, significant others, other relatives, or caretakers of APS patients. Tips from one patient to another would also be another good topic for an article. Or maybe you have something else you'd like to share with other APS patients? We don't have many of these types of articles.

We have a number of patient stories waiting in the wings, but we will never turn them away. We have gotten a few patient stories from men lately and we thank you! We like to remind people that APS is not just a woman's disease however we can! Please, keep those patient stories and articles coming! We do appreciate each and every one that we receive.

Please submit articles to the following email address: articles@apsfa.org. Guidelines for writing articles can be found here: http://www.apsfa.org/newsletters.html#guidelines. If you have an idea and are not sure if it would fit, please feel free to contact us through our contact page on the website, or email us using the email address below. We are open to any suggestions. Without your help we would not be able to include an APS patient's story in each of our newsletters.

Please let us know if there are any topics that you'd like our Medical Advisors to cover in their articles. We try to request topics that people are emailing about or that are discussed on our support forum. (http://www.apsforum.com) So if there's anything you'd like to see, please let us know and we'll pass it along to the medical advisors.

Thank you again to those people who have submitted articles. If you have submitted an article and we have not used it yet, we will be using it in the near future. We could also use articles written by medical professionals or medical students. Please contact us if you are interested and if you know anyone who may be interested in writing articles for us, please pass this email along.
