EVERYBODY PLEASE READ

[Jan214]

I have been toying with the idea of starting a registry among us so that in the event that one of our "sisters" needs someone to be with them IRL we will have a list of people we can call in their city.  Most of us remember our little friend in CA who could have used a lot of support and at the last minute we were scambling around trying to find someone to help her.  Now there are other women who are having to face this alone or pretty much alone and that should not be the case.  We are so loving and supportive on this forum, I don't see why we should not carry that over into RL.  I have thought of several good and safe ways this could be done so now I just want to know if you all would be willing to participate.  If the response is enough I will post my ideas on how it could be done and I would like your input as well.  I am an organizer by nature and usually pretty good at getting people to come together for a good cause.  We are always looking for ways to help the cause of OVCA and being there for one of our own is a great way to start.  Thanks
Love,
Jan

Two ladies in my school district who had been diagnosed with OVCA shortly before me were wonderful in giving me information and providing me with support.  I'd love to be able to help others in the same way.  I'm in the Austin, TX area.

I don't know how available I can be for traveling to help someone, but I will certainly do anything I can! Teresa

Hey all ... Sorry I havent been on here (had some more medical stuff going on, but nothing to complain about) ....

JAN ... this is a wonderful idea ... BTW .. I worked in retail for several years which means - I can put stuff together & even though I am all the way over here ... I would absolutely LOVE to help in any way that I can ... Just let me know where your (or anyone elses) needs are & I will pick it up ... This forum has turned out to be much more than what I expected when I first started reading the posts and posting myself ... This is a life line for all of the people effected directly or indirectly by this horrible disease ..

Count me in :)
