Happy Anniversary Psorphil

Happy 3rd year Anniversary to my Psorphil Family!!!!

Three years of friendships, successes and a never ending desire to spread the word that: Psoriasis is NOT contagious!

I am glad to be part of this brilliant community. Where people do not measure beauty by the color and condition of their skin but through the beauty and sincerity of each one's heart. I am a very proud member of Psorphil. Proud to help the community in their quest for awareness, understanding and equality.

I'm a proud psorkeeteer!

Congratulations Psorphil!

Yesterday, the Philippine Psoriasis Online Community, Inc. (Psorphil) launched its 2nd Hug Me Campaign. The campaign aims to inform the citizens of our country and the whole world that psoriasis is NOT CONTAGIOUS.

The event was a success indeed. It was covered by GMA 7 and was aired during the news yesterday. It will be aired once more tomorrow, August 18, 2008 at various GMA 7 news updates and on QTV 11. Watch out for it...be aware...help spread the word: PSORIASIS IS NOT CONTAGIOUS.

Sharing with you the first press release of Hug Me...I'm Not Contagious campaign. This is a project of my psoriasis support group to spread awareness regarding our ailment.

Hug Me...I'm Not Contagious

Awareness Campaign

It has been days that I last posted anything here.

I am busy helping in a project of my Psorphil family. We will be launching our Hug Me...I'm Not Contagious campaign on August 16, 2008 at the Makati Elks Club, Makati City, Philippines.

We have invited the Department of Health Secretary Francisco Duque III, doctors from the Philippine Dermatological Society, journalists, celebrities and patients who suffer from psoriasis. There will be a forum on how media can best lend their hand to spread awareness that psoriasis is not contagious. That we are not contagious. That I am not contagious.

I am hoping this project will be a success. There are so many Filipinos who suffer from psoriasis, hopefully this will enlighten many people about the disease, its effects on patients and how they can best help spread awareness.

In this light, I would like to invite you to this event. Help us spread the word. Hug Me...I'm not Contagious.
