For those who don't know, there is a great, comprehensive brochure about HG that is available to download and print from this website.
I think it can be a great educational resource, and it can be used in a number of different ways. Some ideas of how:
• Ask your Dr. if you can leave a few in the waiting area.
• Pass them out to family members and/or freinds to help them understand what HG is.
• Distribute them anywhere you think sick, pregnant women might find them . Examples: hospital labor and delivery areas, pharmacies, etc...
The brochure is in PDF format, meaning you need Adobe Acrobat Reader (a free download available at www.adobe.com ) to open and print it. To access the PDF, follow this link, or copy and paste it into your browser.

You can also access the link by going to the health professionals page, and clicking on Patient Education Tools.
Once you are to the page, click on the first link, titled "What is HG? Basic Patient Education PDF," and the brochure will be downloaded onto your computer. You can then print as many as you want or need.
If you have questions about how to get it downloaded and printed, just post it in this forum and someone here can answer it.
