Dystonia Advocacy Day - 2010




Pictured above are just some of the many dystonia advocates who came out to Washington in support of Dystonia Advocacy Day 2010.

Many thanks to the dystonia advocates, especially our many first-timers, who participated in the biggest and best Dystonia Advocacy Day to date. Congratulations everyone! You were all fabulous!

Having so many wonderful people give their time and share their personal stories about how dystonia has affected their lives made for a very successful event. We are so grateful to all of you for joining us in this important effort. We appreciate how difficult it was for many of you to travel into Washington, DC and go from office to office in very warm temperatures. Please know your efforts do make a difference.

Advocacy is so important and you were able to enlighten many key individuals about dystonia and this is so important! Collectively we had over 100 meetings on the Hill – helping Members of Congress and/or their key health staff members understand what dystonia is and how they can help our community. People left exhausted but energized by the day’s work!

The Dystonia Advocacy Network was pleased to welcome Steve Groft, PharmD, Director of the NIH Office of Rare Disease Research as our key note speaker Tuesday evening – providing an overview of the important role patient advocates have in the research process.

We were also pleased to present Florida Congressman Bill Young with the 2010 DAN Distinguished Public Service Award for his support of the dystonia community.

A special salute to Millie Munoz for her efforts to join us in Washington, DC. Congresswoman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen of Miami highlighted dystonia and Millie on the floor of the House of Representatives yesterday. Check it out on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/user/cemiwire#p/a/f/0/rzGlJ2WB9X0

  5. As a sign of gratitude for how my son was saved from dystonia , i decided to reach out to those still suffering from this.
    My son suffered dystonia and it was really tough and heartbreaking for me because he was my all and the symptoms were terrible, we tried various therapies prescribed by our neurologist but none could cure him. I searched for a cure and i saw a testimony of so many people who was cured from dystonia and so many other with similar body problem, and they left the contact of the doctor who had the herbal cure to dystonia . I never imagined dystonia has a cure not until i contacted him and he assured me my son will be fine. I got the herbal medication he recommended and my son used it and in one months he was fully okay even up till this moment he is so full of life. dystonia has a cure and it is a herbal cure contact the doctor for more info on drwilliams098675@gmail.com on how to get the medication. Thanks for reading my testimony .
