Virtual Socializing for the Homebound

I have a sweet wonderful online friend who is a teen with Juvenile Diabetes.  She's so lonely.  Are there any good online forums for the homebound, especially young people, to socialize?  I can't find any.  Thank you!

I would suggest going to www.jdrf.org--that is The Juvenile Diabetic Research Foundation website.  They might have some useful information for you and your friend.
