EXCITING NEWS- Nicky Otts, Owner of Mayatek, Inc., has found several benefactors for the upcoming 20:4:80 course specifically designed for families with children with brachial plexus injuries who have donated scholarships for therapists and families to attend this conference in Houston Jan 25-26. This is being done in conjunction with Texas Children's Hospital Brachial Plexus Conference Jan 24-25 for parents and professionals. As a therapist who has attended many 20:4:80 conferences, you will earn invaluable information to treat children with BPI, cerebral palsy, and spina bifida. As an adult who has sustained a BPI, families can learn to look at their child as an athlete and become the coach of your child's life time plan. DO NOT MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY IF YOU WANT YOUR CHILD TO REACH HIS OR HER PERSONAL BEST.
Please contact Victoria or Roxanne at mayatek 1-877-827-2242 for more details.
Looking forward to seeing you there.

I'm bringing this back to the top.

I just got the scholarship for myself. This means that I got my fee waived for the 20:4:80 conference. CALL DOWN THERE!!! before all the scholarships are gone!! I heard that this seminar is really good.

The phone number is incorrect... Mayatek's number is

800 351 0016 (www.mayatek.com)

speak with Victoria or Roxanne there.

But Lee Anne - if you get an appointment for an evaluation then you can get the free airfare....

True, Francine, we applied for free airfare this morning, but still undecisive because there are no activities for the children while the parents are in the conference all weekend. We would have to take Logan with us to be evaluated by Nath on Monday but what would we do with her all weekend??
Still unsure...

Would your husband be going? Maybe you could switch off and take notes for each other.

one parent goes to conference...other parent tours Houston? They did tell me that some kids will be at the conference but I can't imagine what they will do there. This is the one big problem - I did suggest a "kid's camp" to them but I guess they didn't want to do it. The other thing to do is to bring another family member - like gramma - to run around with the kids while both parents are in the conference.

The children that will be there are the one's being used for demo's such as the aquatherapy demo. We are trying to get our daughter in as a demo child.
