ITP does not discrimate when it strikes its next victim. It affects the young and old, rich and poor all over the world. Dealing with this blood disorder is no easy task. The fear and frustration of not knowing where the roller coaster will take us next can be daunting.

This blog is for ITPers to express thoughts, feelings and lessons learned during their ride. Send your post to greta799@yahoo.com. We want to hear from you.

Today is movie day.....

Keith Hart has produced a video that relates his ITP story. His sense of humor in doing a parody of the song, You've Lost That Loving Feeling  makes the viewer laugh, and also think about our own battles with ITP. Keith made the video to raise awareness of ITP and he did an excellent job of showing what this blood disorder can do to its victims. Take a look:

The members of the Facebook group, ITP and ME had a brainstorming session one day and came up with a wonderful idea! Under the leadership of Elaine Twohig Odriscoll the group made a video about ITP. The idea behind this project was to spread the word about this terrible blood disorder to the whole world.
The video features members of the ITP and ME group and sends out a message that should make everyone think about ITP. Many of you have seen this already but it is worth a second look.


Several videos from PDSA, stories from ITPers and other information aboutITP.
