Board of Directors/Director of Education
On October 15, 2007, the Board of
Directors of FRF voted to appoint Tammy Lowe Executive Director of
the nonprofit organization. Tammy's objective as Director in the
near future is to enlist, organize, and guide
volunteers who will assist in FRF's upcoming international
educational campaign.
Tammy's appointment as Executive
Director signals a turning point in FRF's history. Having solved
the problem of fibromyalgia, we now have two important objectives:
First, we must go about conducting more definitive and confirming
studies; second, we must
educate the public and health care professions about the
nature of fibromyalgia and about treatments that are appropriate
and effective for patients. Through this second objective, we know
that we can enable most patients to escape their pain and suffering,
regain control of their lives, and fulfill their dreams as healthy
participants in life.
Tammy has demonstrated a high
level of competence in health care management. We fully and
enthusiastically expect this competence to be reflected in her
guidance and direction of FRF toward the fulfillment of our goals.
