Angels amongst us.......
Does Maggie have an angel ????
We need to start that up on our very busy board with all the surgeries upcoming.
For anyone who does not know what an angel does.....
basically the person has contact info about the patient and gets a thumbs up call or email from family and passes it along to the rest of us...... then you dont have to wait for the actual person to come home from hospital.....
Sometimes people want their angel to be post op and even the same surgery but its all up to who you would like to be it.
Its an honor to be someones angel and special friendships form during this time of waiting before and the post op period.

Ok so I thought I would bring this subject forward as it was on another post.... I also wanted to say that everyone has a surgery page and support can be posted there as well..... I will chk out the site and see how that works.
I am now an official OH Certified Support Group Leader - have taken my classes and ta da !
I am putting together an online support group via OH and will send everyone invitations for this part of the site..... it doesnt take away from our NB/NS forum however I can post information there as I have access now to a huge library of hand outs on everything from self image to nutrition to how to figure out protein needed or supplements.
I am not a medical professional but can speak from experience and now after taking the courses have access to such a wealth of information to share.
The group is called : MARITIMERS UNITE FOR HEALTHY LIVES
So I will be diving into getting that all set up and running and hope that it will offer a lot of great information and support to us all. Again it is still on OH but under a different section.

Hi,
I think it's a wonderful Idea. I live about one hour from Moncton and am supposed to be there on the 24th and if it's ok I'd love to stop by and see how Charline is doing.
