I reached a milestone today that some thought I would never reach. Today is my 50th birthday, not bad for my parents being told I wouldn't live to 18? I want to thank you for all the times you have stood up for me even when others didn't believe I would survive. Thank you for all the long hours and every time you went beyond the call of duty. I truly love my life with my family and friends, and know I wouldn't have it without you. Enjoy this day, because I am! All I have for you is admiration and thanks. Love, Carla Heeke-Dean June 9, 2013 - Had dinner with the Heads of International Research organizations (HIRO) at the Hyatt Bethesda Hotel. Francis Collins is the Chair this year and so they meet in the USA. Francis asked me to be the after dinner speaker with Eric Goosby. I spoke about the threat of MERS-CoV and H7N9 Influenza and Eric spoke about PEPFAR. June 10, 2013 - Met with Tim Hallett (of the UK's London School of Tropical Health and Hygiene) and Eric Goosby in Eric's office to discuss Tim's mathematical model for concentrating PEPFAR's efforts on "Hot Zones" of infection within a given country as opposed to targeting whole countries or regions. Mark Dybul is very much in favor of this approach and since he is now Executive Director of the Global Fund, he wanted me to convince Eric that PEPFAR should take this approach. Hence, Mark arranged this meeting of me, Tim, and Eric. Eric in his usual good careful approach is somewhat skeptical of "Models" June 14, 2013 - Please see hyperlink to historical AIDS posters from ACT-UP: http://huff.to/10fto8L June 17, 2013 - Met with Senate Democratic Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) in Building 10, Room 5-1608 to discuss the exciting things in research such as universal flu vaccine. Also there was Francis Collins, Story Landis and Gary Gibbons. We must have done some good since the next day Sen. Reid came out with a statement that the sequester should exclude NIH. June 18, 2013 - Good Day. Went to the 10th Year Anniversary Celebration of PEPFAR at the Dean Acheson Auditorium in the State Department. Sen. Kerry presided and in his introduction called me out very generously. Below is the text of his statement. It is clear that my friend Eric Goosby helped his staff write it:
