One Hundred Three People Attend Seminar with
Dr. Richard Silver!
We had an excellent meeting on Friday, Oct. 7 at the Caribe Hilton
Hotel. One hundred three people (51 people with scleroderma) came
to hear a very educational seminar presented by Richard Silver,
M.D., Director of the Rheumatology and Immunology Division at the
University of South Carolina and a member of the Scleroderma Foundation
Medical Advisory Board. He kept everyone's attention with a lot
of information. He also answered questions from the group for a
period of one hour and a half. At the end of the presentation, we
had a get-together and ate a delicious “Paella;" all this thanks to our sponsor, Actelion Pharmaceuticals.
