Michigan Chapter of APPNA held its 2007 fall meeting at Mariott Hotel, Pontiac, MI
The meeting was well attended and tables had to be added to
accomodate additional attendees. As has been the tradition, family members
were prominent and were largely responsible for its success.
The outgoing officers related the state of the Chapter which has seen its
membership grow and include members outside metropolitan Detroit areas. The
financial state is sound and well poised to continue
ongoing functions. The meeting began with a continuing medical education lecture
on treatment of deep vein thrombosis and emboli. The national anthems of USA and
Pakistan were sung by the children.
