Is anyone planning on attending the UOAA National Conference, in Jacksonville, in August?
Has anyone attended previous ones? Is it worth the trip?

Hi,
I attended the one in Reno, NV two years ago and it was excellent. We also got to see the surrounding area, especially Lake Tahoe. The conference had many excellent lectures, good food, and great vendors with lots of freebees. You'll have fun and meet a lot of people, all with ostomies. My husband and I are going to skip this one (even though we live in Florida) because once you've gone to one, you've pretty much seen it all. We'll probably go again down the road sometime.
