Embrace October 2010 Updates

Dear Embrace Supporters,

Embrace showcased the first version of our product at a national neonatal conference in India and received a tremendous response. Over two days, we had nearly 100 doctors sign up to purchase the product. Interest was high across the board, from private practitioners to government hospitals. It was rewarding to hear not only how needed the product was, but also how eagerly people wanted to buy it.

Embrace is excited about this amazingly positive feedback; we are eager to launch the product this winter and start saving lives!
