Been on a plane lately. We get dollared to death. Even so, the one thing we are asked to do is to put on our own mask before you try to help others. That is what we are talking about…taking care of yourself before you attempt to help others with their health. Also, throughout this presentation you will be introduced to some of the people at the Alliance who you will have the opportunity to work with and meet. This will give you the opportunity to put a face with a name.
