I want to thank all the families who attended the CNCF parent conference last weekend in Washington DC. We were able to tap into a few international speakers who were attending the ANR conference, Dr. Angelika Eggert from Germany, Dr. Gudrun Schleiemacher from France and Dr. Esther Berko from Israel/CHOP along with many US researchers. Our event was live streamed so hoping many of you were able to watch the presentations since you weren’t able to attend in person. I want to thank our sponsors again for their continued support of the conference, US World Meds, Y-Mabs Therapeutics, United Therapeutics, NICK Foundation, Fennec Pharmaceuticals, Cheung Family Foundation, Arms Wide Open Foundation and Be the Rainbow Foundation. I want to thank Carmine’s restaurant for a great dinner for our families, Eric Henning for the magic show, Beat the Bomb and Pinstripes for the NB survivors’ outings, Mike & Margaret Mauthe for their help in the Kids Room, making balloon figures, face painting and the magic show. And most of all to the CNCF staff, friends and volunteers, Nicci, Connie, Cherie, Mike & Cassie, Catherine, Gianna, John, Taylor, Ansley, Laura, Roshali, Roxanne, Kendra, and Roy. We have already started planning for the 2026 Parent Conference and hope to see you next year. (fb)
