Name: Carri Nease    Birth Date: 2/10/71 Title: Why don't the docs ask all the right questions? Bleeding Disorder: Hemo A Date of Diagnosis: 36 yrs after the diagnosis of my twins You gynecologists always asked for the first day of my last period-why didn't you ask for the last day? Why didn't you ever tell me what "Normal" was when you asked me if everything was normal-10 to 15 days of bleeding was normal for me… Be thorough when you are establishing a baseline with a patient...

Name: Bekah Scappe (RB)          Birth Date: 1/25/1990 Title: Cammy     Bleeding Disorder: VWD In a weird way, I actually enjoy having a bleeding disorder. It's not always a good thing to hear I have it, but I get to do things other people do not. I have the advantage of going to camp and making new friends. I just absolutely don't know what I would do if I didn't have a bleeding disorder.           ID: CL-PAZ-BE-0052 Name: Lia Veres        Birth Date: 11/19/1992 Title: Izzy She would say fight for what you think is right and don't ever be afraid to say what you feel.
