Dear HCMA Supporter,
 
From our latest "sticky poll" results on the HCM Community Message Boards, I don't have to tell you that the majority of "people around you don't understand HCM". All the more reason to mark your calendar to register for our 12th Annual HCMA Meeting coming up May 29 - 31, 2009 at the Hamilton Park Hotel & Conference Center in Florham Park, NJ.

This is THE Conference where we understand and support YOU. And this year's will be better than ever. It will give you the unique opportunity  to reconnect with old friends and hopefully make new ones. Plus, you'll get caught up on the latest in diagnosis, management, genetics, and lifestyle issues that are important to you. Maybe you'll even get the ear of that HCM specialist you've been wanting to talk to! 
 
In this special "Conference" edition newsletter, you'll also get a "sneak" preview of the official Meeting highlights including a peak at the speaker line up. We promise you, it will be the most informative and supportive conference yet. All this, in one weekend, and with a new package deal for the meeting, including lodging and all meals. If you have joined us in the past you know what an amazing weekend this will be. If you've wanted to attend in the past, but just couldnt make it - this is the year to just do it.

We have twenty amazing expert speakers from the top HCM programs around the country --  all in one place --  to provide top quality information to both medical professionals in our CME track, and patients in our general sessions. To learn more about the meeting or to register click here! Remember Early Birds receive deep discounts.
