Managing Fibromyalgia Blog
 

This Blog is basically a summary and notes from our monthly Fibromyalgia Support Group meeting, where our speakers give of their wealth of information. I take copious notes and hope to do them justice! When someone has a specific topic they'd like me to research and address, I add that too.  For example: 

Fibro Notes June, 2011

Fibromyalgia's Possible Biomarker
I was honored to introduce a very special guest speaker and dear friend this evening, Dr. Kumar Bhatt of The Mishawaka Clinic. He is the man who started me on my path of discovery, and pointed me in the direction of my passion. I can never thank him enough!

Dr. Bhatt began this evening by telling us the old adage, “When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.” With Fibromyalgia there is no existing hammer! (Ouch- I’m not certain I like that particular analogy.)

Talent For Giving
Authors' Group




Local Authors & Artists

In March of 2009 the authors and artists group, “Talent for Giving, was organized under the caring and capable hands of Karen Bachert.  During these past years we have enjoyed a very positive response at the many expos, speaking engagements and fund raising events showcasing and selling our books throughout Indiana and lower Michigan.

“Talent For Giving” Mission

Each of us has our own unique set of talents, and whatever those talents may be, they give us the opportunity to express ourselves in a meaningful way. Through the launch of the “Talent For Giving” (TFG) initiative, we are encouraged as authors and artists to share our talent with the world and to help others in the process.

Karen Bachert, author of Quality of Life: The 5 Stages of Retirement Success, says, “It’s been wonderful to bring together so many talented people and to be able to present to our communities such an inspiring collection of books from authors and illustrators from South Bend, Mishawaka, Granger, Goshen, Middlebury, Kokomo, Fort Wayne, Indiana and Niles, Michigan. We tour various expos and events showcasing our book collections, often helping to raise money for local charities. It’s exciting to see more and more new talent as each new author or artist joins our group.”
