New Support Net Page and Group
Posted 4/3/2009

I am delighted to share news of our brand new Breast Cancer Support Net which brings together a range of ways to help ourselves and each other. In addition to links to this blog and lots of medical information about breast cancer, there are Podcasts to listen to and, best of all, an online support group.
Since losing my position at RevolutionHealth.com last November, I have missed this opportunity for us all to communicate directly with one another. It took several months for that forum to build up to a lively and interactive group. I am hoping we can do it more quickly. If you use the link above to navigate to the right page, there is an obvious link to the "Online Support Group." Just click on "Join the Chat". This group will work in two ways:
1. On the first and third Tuesdays of each month at 8 PM ET, we will have a live online chat--an opportunity for us all, in real time, to be together and talk.
2. The chat room will be open 24/7. This is the place for you to ask questions, begin conversations, throw out topics of interest, ask for help. Let's all use it and begin to create a very special and wonderful community.
When you join this group for the first time, you will be asked to register. Please note that the only thing that will appear online is your Username. The rest of the required information is totally confidential and not shared with anyone (including me),
Any questions: Please feel free to write me directly at hhill@bidmc.harvard.edu
ADDENDUM 4/4: I AM SADLY AWARE THAT THERE ARE CONTINUING PROBLEMS WITH THE "CHAT" PART OF THIS SYSTEM. WE ARE WORKING ON IT AND HOPEFULLY IT WILL BE SMOOTH IN A DAY OR TWO.
