We Are Family
In describing our support group to healthcare professionals this week at San Antonio, I came to the realization that we are actually one large extended family. The compassion and caring for each other among our members is surely phenonimal.
We realize that all of us wish to put breast cancer behind us and try to restore our lives to normal. Others may wish to take a vacation from cancer. This sudden disappearance sometimes causes great concern as as cancer patients, we fear the worst.
A few months ago, I was requested to compile a database of phone numbers and addresses for the sole purpose of contacting members when they suddenly "disappeared" from the boards. This simple request required a great deal of soul searching as we are morally obligated to respect the absolute privacy of everyone on this website. It is an obligation that is sacred to us.
After months of work, we have modified our registration procedure and am now prepared to collect the information. The information will be encrypted in our database and the only person who will have access is myself or anyone that I delegate.
If you wish to add your information, access "UserCP" go to "edit options" and add your info. DO NOT check the box that allows Vcard downloads.
Warmest Regards
Joe
