The CCSVI feature on the Sunday Night program on Channel 7 originally scheduled for 6 June has been postponed 1 or 2 weeks.

What an awesome day we had yesterday at the MS Walk.
It was fantastic to meet my fellow 'Liberatos' and on-line buddies!!

I remained in the info tent, whilst others handed out our excellent leaflets. The blue balloons were the best idea as they stood out in the sea of red!!

Well done to Kerri and Leanne in Melbourne and Louise in Sydney.

I just got the OK from Bill Younger (CEO MS Soc Vic/NSW/ACT) to put our CCSVI pamphlets up at the Nerve Centre in Blackburn Vic.

Perhaps someone can take a bunch of them to the MS Soc in NSW too?

Thanks for your support Bill.

Thank you muse, I have noted that down.

My own neuro is fairly conservative and is not really even interested in hearing me talk about this stuff. I will try again on my next visit in a couple of months and if I still have no joy, I will be moving forwards with this.

Nothing new in the details, but interesting to know it got a mention in http://www.mssociety.org.au/documents/i ... nter10.pdf

This may help reach people who have not been following CCSVI on the net.

Sunday Night program - June 20

Post by hwebb »

I believe the coverage of CCSVI in the Sunday Night program (channel 7, 6.30pm), has been rescheduled to Sunday 20th June. Thus no promotional info on this on tv or internet yet.

Please note Prof T's phone number is:
03 9076 2536

The '3' is missing from the quote.
Arne can you edit please.
