New Forum Section: Support Groups and Communities of Hope
Marrowforums is pleased to announce the addition of a new forum section:
Support Groups and Communities of HopeThis section provides a home for announcements, as well as questions and comments, about bone marrow failure disease support groups in your city. Support groups range from small informal gatherings to larger groups, some affiliated with treatment centers or medical organizations. They include the Aplastic Anemia & MDS International Foundation's Communities of Hope. Why participate in a local support group? Online forums like Marrowforums have a world-wide reach, but sometimes there's no substitute for person-to-person support. Patient conferences let you meet other patients and their families but won't necessarily be near you. Local support groups may meet frequently in a location close to you. At a local support group meeting you can see and hear other patients on a regular basis and speak to them much more personally. They not only know what you are going through, they are with you. If you need a handshake, a pat on the back, a shoulder to cry on, or just a hug, consider a local support group. If you are a patient or family member, we encourage to you

If you are a local support group organizer, facilitator, host, or sponsor, we invite you to use Marrowforums to get the word out about your support group and its meetings.
Here's how to do it:
