Hey there everyone. Well I’m half way through my internship and I can’t believe how the time flies. My article for Healthy People 2020 is finished. I will post it here today. I also will be discussing what the foundation can do to help promote Healthy People 2020 to the Thalassemia community. I am also doing research on Public Service Announcements. I think it would be beneficial to make a PSA that is targeted towards getting tested for the trait. Along that note I am also doing research for niche marketing. Niche marketing is a way to target certain demographics. That means I am looking for Italian, Greek, Turkish, Pakistani, Middle Eastern, Indian, and Asian forms of media here in the U.S. to help us get the word out. These are the ethnicities that Thalassemia directly affects. I am also working on making the Facebook and twitter a better destination for members to go to. Any ideas? I would be glad to hear them. The more and more I learn about other Thalassemia patients I also learn that this can be treated and doesn’t have to happen to others. It just reinforces my mission each week to help those with compliance and help to find new ways for patients to connect. This week has been a little rough. My and Ian’s anniversary is on Saturday and I just don’t know what that day is going to be like. Thank goodness my best friend is coming into town to visit. She’s the best and I love her dearly she has been a tremendous support throughout these last months. I think we are going to spend that day going to some museums and then I am buying flowers to leave at Strawberry Fields. I will have pictures to post soon too. Until next time everyone.
