ONE MINUTE ADVOCACY: THANK MARIA GJERPE, AND DONATE TO MEandYou!
By now most of you have probably heard the fantastic news that the Norwegian Government has given funding to allow the Norwegian Phase III Rituxan trial in ME to start (http://forums.phoenixrising.me/inde...ssibly-partial-amount-not-yet-announced.23606 ). This is in HUGE part thanks to Maria Gjerpe, who, with her MeandYou crowdsourcing initiative, has so far raised enough money to cover 51 of 140 patients in the trial.

THERE ARE 2 WAYS YOU CAN THANK MARIA!
  1. SIGN this card here: http://www.groupcard.com/c/zMGag9wWEjE - please add your country!
  2. DONATE - The trial is not 100% funded YET, although it has the go-ahead to start slowly. Maria has explained that this trial will be completed FASTER with your donations! Please give to MEandYou here: www.meyou.no/donate-doner
The sooner this trial is completed, the sooner we will have more ammunition to educate doctors around the world with... and the sooner urgently needed biomedical treatment will be available to patients around the world.

HAVE AN EXTRA MINUTE?
After you have signed and donated for Maria, if you have a free minute kicking around, the Thank You card for VMware (who donated information technology support and a grant to the Open Medicine Institute) is still open here: http://www.groupcard.com/c/ZjA2X_lwClv

Thank you!
