What do Oprah Winfrey, Rod Stewart and former US President George Bush have in common?

They are all thyroid patients.

About 200 million people in the world have some form of thyroid disease. This is according to www.thyroid.ca, one of the well-known source of information about the disease.

Thyroid disorders for the most part are treatable; however, untreated thyroid disease can produce serious results in other parts of the body. Improved public awareness and understanding of thyroid disorders will enable patients and their families to cope more effectively with the sometimes disturbing course of thyroid illness. In this way individuals will also be better equipped to play a role in alerting their physicians to a suspected thyroid condition that may otherwise be difficult to diagnose in the sometimes slowly developing initial phases.

In the Philippines, a fundraising concert for thyroid patients will be held on July 6, 2013 (8:00 pm) at the Crossroad Center, Mother Ignacia Ave. corner Sct. Reyes St., Quezon City. Juan Night with Jose & Wally. produced by the Philippine Society of Nuclear Medicine (PSNM), features two of the country’s leading comedians, Jose Manalo and Wally Bayola. Joining the popular duo are equally talented stand-up comedians Anton Diva and Ethel Booba.

So if you’re in for a night of laughter and at the same time support the cause, grab your tickets now. You may contact Michael Go of iConceptualizeyourEvents Inc. – 0917-9159406 / 0922-8437628.
