Congress for Narrative Medicine & Rare Diseases

Last night we had an early supper, after a restful day, ensuring that I should be fresh for my presentation . Today is the day, and we got up bright and early, and had a robust breakfast. We’ll be taking a taxi to the Congress, and shall arrive there a little early, so that we can meet the organisers, and see the room where the lectures will be taking place. I don't feel nervous, but am very excited to be here and taking part. Registration is at 09:00. Participants will be welcomed at 09:40, and at 09:55 there will be an Introduction. Following this at 10:10 the renowned Prof. Brian Hurwitz will speak (who is from England), after which it is yours truly. I will be speaking at 10:55 for 15 minutes with a further 5 minutes for questions. There are a number of interesting speakers throughout the day, a break naturally for lunch, several poster presentations and the Congress will come to an end at 17:00. I will write my blog later night and let you all know how it went. Thank you everyone for all your support and messages of good luck. I almost feel you are with me in spirit. Arrivederci for now!
