First I'd like to say to Ron ... great description with the bacon and egg breakfast! If to be a "pig" means to be "committed," count me in!
Naresh, I think we should consider simply having more men participate on the main message board. Often times, the men can assist in answering many of the substantive HER-2 questions posed by the newly diagnosed women, or provide the perspective of a spouse and/or caregiver.
Also, I believe that the men benefit from the perspectives presented by the women. I know I have learned a lot about how the women feel in the course of treatment and this invaluable information has helped me in handling my mom's situation. Why artificially separate the two groups as they both benefit from each other and make the group even more cohesive. Just a thought. I'd be interested in additional views.
Warmest regards,
Paul
