The third annual conference was a success and the fourth will take place in Vancouver, Canada from August 22 - 23, 2014. Stay tuned for more details as

Please consider becoming a sponsor (any donation in any amount will do) to help with travel expenses for other families who need to be at this conference next year or to help pay for their lodging or meals while there or to simply help the organizers defray the costs. The family pays for much out of pocket and it becomes expensive for them. Let's ensure that this conference continues! More information is available on the website below.

The first Annual Evidence Based Medicine conference was a fabulous success! Media filmed throughout the entire event, and I encourage those in Canada to watch! "Diagnosis Murder" aired on Friday, January 13, 2012. The full show is only available in Canada, but all the clips included on that site are available for international viewers to watch as well.
The conference took place August 4-6, 2011 at the Pacific Life Bible College in Surrey, Canada (thank you to the pastor and everyone working there who took part in the preparations for the event). There were speakers from Canada, U.S., and U.K. (via Skype). My heartfelt thanks to all experts who presented and who then took time to stay and talk to the parents and myself in further detail. Thank you all so much.
And especially thanks to the family who created this and made it happen. I am simply stunned at what you accomplished in so little time and with everything else you were working through. Amazing! You are a blessing to us all. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
* A special thanks to the benefactors who helped finance my trip to the conference and expenses while there. I hope that my efforts have made you proud to have sponsored this. You have no idea what an opportunity this has been and how much it will continue to help me in the future - both with Elwood's case and with anyone else I can help. Thank you so much.
