We’ve been posting on social media about a surprise, and to us it truly
is. We certainly have been looking forward to this moment, guessing what day it
would happen. And here it is!
In November 2012 we started the LIPESE blog with this blog post:
My Experience - MLD (Manual Lymph Drainage) and Compression Therapy
My Experience - MLD (Manual Lymph Drainage) and Compression Therapy
Thank you for reading the LIPESE lipedema blog
Not even in our wildest dreams did we anticipate our blog to be this
well-read, or that we would write this many blog posts. It has proven to be a
valuable platform to spread realistic information about lipedema and lipedema
treatment. It has proven its worth particularly for those living in corners of
the world where there is no expert help present, or for those unable to travel
to the conferences to hear about the latest research, or those who can’t afford
to see an informed specialist. We sincerely hope it will continue to be that
little light out there.
Giveaway to celebrate 100,000 blog views
To celebrate this milestone of 100,000 blog views we are giving away 10
copies of Tatjana’s ebook Welcome…
which will appear January 2016. Part of the proceeds of this book will go
towards lipedema research. For Lipese it will hopefully mark the start of
supporting significant lipedema research financially.
If you would like to win a copy of Welcome…,
you can enter by leaving your name in comments. On January 12, 2016 we’ll draw
the winners!
Always learn from the posts. Would love to win the book. Congrats!

Incredibly valuable site, it and the fb blog have helped me more than I can say, though I don't participate much. Thank you so much, 100,000 views, so brilliant!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats! I usually read by RSS-feed, so my views probably don't count because I don't visit the site (or do they because my feed reader downloads the new posts? I don't know how that works). Anyways, I'm an avid reader and would like to use this opportunity to thank you for all your work and sharing your sometimes very personal stories. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteWe're nog sure either how that works with the email subscriptions and followers via RRS feed, but we're just happy we have an excuse for a celebration. 😉
DeleteCongrats on the success! I would like to enter my name for the giveaway- Susan Martin
