I cannot help but cry as I sit here and read the news that OUCH is no more.   Apathy killed what so many people through the years worked so hard to keep  going.

Thank you to all of you who fought so hard and so long to try and build up the organization and to those who fought to keep it alive.

I wish I had done more.

Ouch had its good points and its bad, looking back I can recall a whole lot of good. This should be a time to look back on what worked, what didn't, and learn from the past, and move on. I personally would like to see OUCH rise from the ashes as a new entity, released from the mistakes and hardships of the past and start anew with a clean plate. To those who put the years of work into OUCH, I say THANK YOU, your service was appreciated and you helped a lot of people, me included.

At last week's ClusterBusters conference here in Las Vegas, I overheard somebody mention that because OUCH is RIP, the July annual conventions will also stop and ClusterBusters will be the only annual convention.  Can anybody confirm this?

I've looked around on this site and can not find the recommended doctor list, is it still available?  If so, I suggest it to be a sticky under the Medications/Treatments /Therapies board.  Does anybody agree?

Multimedia File Viewing and Clickable Links are available for Registered Members only!!  You need to Login or Register the ouch website is still up and all of the information is still there for reference. Rumor has it that the information there will not be lost but reposted on another cluster website. I dont think it proper that I should say what website. I will leave that to whomever that job is. To all wondering as I did..this information should not be lost, as it is a valuable resource. Still wished OUCH was a going concern. Cry

With OUCH going by the wayside there will be no "official" conference in July. Of course nothing is stopping someone from organizing a meet and greet.... We did a January meet for years...last year only a few showed up. Will we doing it again? Probably.....even if it's just a few of us getting together it's certainly better than nothing.....

RIP OUCH. They helped a lot while I was first learning about this condition.

also that April Fool's Article was hilarious. The sad thing is I've had people suggest Chewing Gum and other things to abort attacks!

Thanks for your insight Racer-Bill  Wink
That sucks the annual July conventions are no longer, however I do agree Meet & Greets are certainly better than nothing.  Any word on something for 2013....date/city/etc?  Is this something we should poll and vote on? 

As for the next large get together west of the Rockies, I would certainly volunteer to help organize with negotiating hotel rates/conference room space/scheduling keynote speakers/auction items/sponsors/etc.

Hopefully the recommended doctor list does in fact become a sticky so we can all easily find it quickly.  I'm sure most would agree that the most relevant board to place this sticky list should go under the board-Medications/Treatments/Therapies.

Thanks Racer-Bill for your past and continued efforts on this list Wink

Was saddened to see OU.C.H going as well, hadn't been to site for years and when clusters returned was shocked to see it ending.  Many thanks to all whom have been involved over the years.  An amazing organization and was a life line for me and my children and family.  Always an end to Great things, guess that's why CH's stick around for so long.....hummm

Where one leaves off, another will rise....we all need it too!

If my calculations are correct, Bob still has the OUCH yacht hiding among the boats of the Baywood Navy........ Party time, indeed.

That was just the West Coast OUCH yacht. 

Years of keeping the location and ownership a secret between them, it was discovered there were two yachts.  Seaworthy Don has the East Coast OUCH yacht.  With nobody to bill now for the expensive upkeep and maintenance, and the endless "mines bigger than yours" game with Bob P...
