Cure Heroes, Pat Riley, Inspiration and Clinical Trials

Get New Treatments Alerts:

A few weeks ago I attended a conference, where the keynote speaker, Amir Kishon (www.wellness-layers.com), was talking about his social media philosophy of “Me + We + Info”.

More than a decade ago, when I was young and beautiful, I found myself sitting in the opening session of the army officers school. The focus of the cadets was upon the commanding officer of the school. Until this day I can remember his posture and the lines the sun dug into his face. At some point he waved, and one of the stuff sergeants entered pushing a wheel full of books. The colonel picked a book, and with his other hand pointed to the pile of books and said “These are good books, they will teach you about history, about tactics and the ballistics of a shell. From these books you’ll learn to be good military commanders, but from this book” he waved the book in his other hand “you will be inspired to be great leaders! you will be inspired on how to build a team! you will be inspired on how to win!. This is a great book by Pat Riley”. I am sure you are familiar with the sensation when you hear a name and for the first two seconds nothing clicks in your mind, then you start to search for it… Pat Riley, American, maybe British, Vietnam, Korea, WW2… a general in a movie… TV…. and then it clicks – Pat Riley, Miami NBA.

I am sharing with you my short story of how inspiration, team spirit and winning is generic. The reason is very simple – this is what we, in TrialX, do. This is what we need and what you need. You are all welcome to join our Cure Heroes and tell your story. http://trialx.com/curetalk/2010/08/saluting-cure-heroes-many-thanks-to-clinical-trial-volunteers-and-research-professionals/

Share with us your stories, write about your inspiration, your hope, what makes you wake up in the morning or what doesn’t let you sleep at night. There are many sites that will offer you a word of advice, our bread and butter is to connect you directly to a researcher who performs a study on a new cure or treatment. Because many patients their thought and experience on the subject we encourage you to write your story.
