That would be sweet if we could get some national media attention. Not only would it be great for the site, but it would be a great time to educate people about EDS and make people aware of it.

A thought thanks to Steph, add www.edskids.net to your personal websites and instant messengers. If you are allowed to "advertise" on other forums let them know about us!

Sounds good. I also thought about writing to like, Woman's Day magazine about EDSkids and Ehlers- Danlos Syndrome. We'll figure out things soon enough. I am planning to make a poster on EDS and EDSkids and make buisness cards and such and go to one of the local fire companies that I belong too and when they have public breakfasts I will sit at a table where they could come up and talk to me, etc. Just a thought?
