Angelman Today November / December edition 2013 | Page 2

EDITOR’S LETTER
The Holiday Season is upon us
‘Tis the season for giving thanks and celebrating with friends and
family. Time for office parties, dinner parties and time to takeout- the- good- dishes parties.
I will began by thanking everyone who has helped create and
support Angelman Today! Thanks to all of the readers that have
reached out and expressed your appreciation for having such a
wonderful new resource.
I know that it is from the bottom of our hearts that we work so
hard to help bring the global community together and share our
experiences. As parents, we work on Angelman Today in between
caring for our Angels - which you know is a task-and-a- half, - and
caring for our families and/or working at other jobs. The
Professionals of our medical and scientific advisory board
generously give of their limited time to write and send in articles,
comments and quotes.
I am so very grateful for the health of my family especially
Nathan, who is doing amazingly well, thanks to our MAPS
physicians. I am thankful to every organization and community
member that has joined Angelman Today and shares the vision of
uniting a global community, sharing resources, information and
helping to improve the daily lives of individuals with Angelman
Syndrome everywhere! I am truly amazed how quickly things are
happening and how Angelman Today is already reaching into
more than 40 countries and territories.
I wish you all a very happy and healthy holiday season with close
friends and family and the friends that ARE family!
Warm Wishes,
Lizzie Sordia
