Re: New to Forum
Hi Dianedack, and welcome!
If you are up early on Sunday morning, there will be a discussion offered about one diet available in particular for breast cancer patients to help limit weight gain and try to focus on a balance of foods that may be more helpful for dealing with breast cancer.
The "chat" function at HER2support is not available for this particular chat, so feel free to contact me by e-mail for directions at akktncomment@gmail.com . It has been scheduled timewise to happen at a time to encourage those down under to participate as well as those in Europe and across Canada, South America, and the USA.
This is the first discussion online that has been set up in quite a while and we may have a few bumps to work out, but we are hoping there will be others if people enjoy this one.
