I am so excited about this site and so proud to be a part of it. I hope you guys will feel at home here as well. We have the potential to achieve great things here!!!!
Christine... question: Many people, when diagnosed or know someone who is, usually do a Google search, just as I did when I was diagnosed. Is this website available to them in a search? We have to try to come up with some recruiting techniques to get people to see this forum as valuable. The more people that contribute means more people will find the forum helpful.
Thanks, Chum.
John, my hair is still brown and my eyes have not decieved me . Patti, some people can go without hair. You're one of them. John isn't! Neither am I. I can remember the first time mine started to fall out. I was in the shower one day. I looked down and there it was. It was just a small amount but enough to set my plan into action. I got out of the shower and went straight for the hair clippers. I insisted that if I was going to lose my hair, I'll have everything to do with it. I shaved the whole thing off. I believe it was actually a year ago this week, because it was just before Halloween. I walked around with a rainbow clown hair wig to make light of it. People who didn't know me or walked past me were like "Oh, OK, Mr." LOL
Good Morning Frank and thank you for pointing this out. I have spoken to Sheila briefly about the site and we are hoping to have a conference call this week with the man who designed the site. As you know this is brand new and these are the comments and suggestions we are looking for!
I am also hoping that we will have some more forum categories up and operating here in the near future, Any thoughts on what you'd like to see included?
And finally, please feel free to tell the world about us!!! We are eager to get the site out there! I personally have been posting the link on all of my facebook pages and on my Twitter as well as my web site. If you are on facebook, please feel free to share the link through your page there.
Hi everyone, We here won't bite. At least for the most part. I would just like to invite all who come to visit to stop and sign up. If you choose to participate that's up to you. Maybe you just want to come and view others posts. That's OK, thats how a lot of people learn how to use and navigate a site like this. Plus you might find something being said that you just have to answer! I want you to know that I am here to try to pass on some information that I've learned along this journey. Some humor at times, we all need to smile more. and maybe give hope to some who don't see any way to go from where they are. The more people who share on here the more people can get help and be part of our new community. Welcome, John
John, thank you so much for taking time to welcome all of our guests and members.
As you all can see, this is a very warm and welcoming site and we hope to be a source of comfort, information and HOPE for all who are touched by lung cancer.
So, as John has posted before me, please take a moment to say Hi and let us know you were here.
Please take just a moment to sign in and log on and come share your stories!! We really would love to meet more people and learn more about your journey!
WONDERFUL Christine & Bonnie!! There are many forums to start. When you have the grieving forum, you know that's where I'll be posting. I'm sure there are others like myself, who can use the support. =) Glad to see you're up and running.
