Just a thought: I would send this along. I just found out there is an Ostomy Conference at the Holiday Inn Washington Dulles International Airport, May 4-6, 2018. Website www.osgnv.org. This would be a great place for some of us that live in the area to attend. I wanted to do something like this, but this is far more than I could do. Please let me know what you think.

Hi Streetrod, I attended this conference two years ago and it was really fun. I would recommend it to anyone in a 6 hour drive radius... or maybe some would not mind flying in to the Dulles Airport. The cost is reasonable as well. My husband and I are planning on attending this year as long as work does not present a conflict. Take care and have a nice weekend. Sincerely, LadyHope
MeetAnOstoMate.org is the only place where people truly understand you. It's because everyone here has an ostomy.
Many come here for advice or to give advice, others have found good friends, and some have even built long-lasting relationships.
Privacy is very important - there are many features only visible to members.

I am planning on attending, plus I'm going to email everyone that was interested in my Get Together about the conference. Let's see if we can get a few to go.

That would be great! It would be nice to meet each other in person. The conference is fun and offers much. I am looking forward to it.

Do they give out name tags so we know who everyone is, especially people on this site?
