Another crazy idea

[Galixie]

I was looking at the change.org website yesterday at the page describing how to start an online petition. My mind wandered (as it often does) and I found myself thinking of something from one of the Harry Potter books. I think it was the fourth book where Hermione decides to take a stand for house-elf rights and creates the "Society for the Promotion of Elfish Welfare" or SPEW. Which is an awful acronym but it would certainly get people's attention. So now I'm trying to think of a phrase about B12 deficiency that would make a similarly distinct impression. But I'm drawing a blank.

Or maybe a BLAND (B12 Lovers Against Negligent Deaths).

I was kind of thinking that if we came up with something with punch we could put it on bracelets or t-shirts or something. I think this falls in line with the breast cancer "I <3 Boobies" campaign because it's a bit of a silly slogan but it catches people's attention. I think people wear those bracelets more because they are funny than to actually promote breast cancer awareness but it still gets the message across. We need something with a wide appeal like that. Any ideas?

That is the problem, Galixie. B12 is not sexy although I guess you could up with some slogan to make it that way..it is very much associated with energy but that sends out the wrong message as in "energy drinks" and celebrity status.

Can anyone think of a sexy slogan..not raunchy, please, but cute and sexy. B12D's are the ?????

One of my friends came up with Pernicious Anemia Needs Intense Care (PANIC)

Hi
So many people on PAS suffer due to lack of knowledge from GP regarding b12/folate/iron. I know when I confront my doctor I really do struggle to remeber anything ive learned the night before. Not saying everyone like me,but it does make it harder when you also have a confidence problem.
Wouldnt it be great for everyone of our doctors to come onto pas so we as individuals can ask what we need to ask then wait for response on plus side having experienced members help out with doctors response their and then...
oh well just a thought mj
