On other news, today is my blog-anniversary! I have seen this mentioned in other blogs and I was expecting like a big pop-up message when I opened the blog, but nope, not such a thing! I just checked when I posted my first post and realised it was a year ago today. Wow...
And today we had the first AGM of Ectopic Pregnancy Ireland. Amazing girls have worked so hard to put it together, there is a website in preparation, should be ready around June-July, the big launch of the association is being planned for September, leaflets are ready to be printed and we have a FB page! We plan to activate a phone-support line to which we'll answer in rotation and we'll have forum on our website too. Fund raising is obviously the big thing which we are not too sure how to tackle efficiently, but the first thing will be running the mini-marathon in Dublin on the 7th of June! the girls think we can get T-shirt ready with the logo and a few friends will go and wear them. Wow. This is happening. We will raise awareness. One of the girls was saying how ignorant people are on the subject...soon after she had her ectopic pregnancy, she was having a manicure and said to the girl that she recently had an ectopic pregnancy and the reaction was "Ohhh!! Congratulations!!" Can you believe it?? We definitely have to do something!
