Sorry, I have not been corresponding, but am reading comments when I have time.
Colleen Young asked if I was attending the NTM Research organization's conference in Washington DC on Friday, May 19, 2017 -- Yes, my husband and I are going. If given the opportunity, I hope to advocate for (1) a national registry of info re all patients and (2) more and better research for an inhaled antibiotic treatment. Is anyone else attending?

Greetings everyone! You guys sure have been quite on this forum lately. I know, you are missing Katherine. I miss her too. I have a feeling she will be back with us before too long. Meanwhile, lets continue to send healing energy and prayers her way towards her recovery. I have exciting news. I will be attending the NTM Conference in D.C. this month. I look forward to learning the latest about our disease and promise to share what I have learned. If any of you have something to share, or just want to check in with us, we are all still here. Hugs all around - Terri M. ( Katherine's surrogate hugger ).).

Paula and Terri M - I will also be attending the conference - it might be nice if we could find each other and sit together? What do you think? Pamela ( I live in Sudbury, MA and will be flying down and staying with my daughter in D.C. and will be taking a cab or Uber over to Georgetown.)

Hi Dale,
I believe you might be referring to Terri M. who goes by the username @windwalker on the Connect forum.
Terri, did you see this post by Dale? Hope you two can connect here on Connect 🙂

PS: Thanks Terri for telling people at the NTM Conference about Mayo Clinic Connect. How was the conference?
