Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 4,912 Likes: 52 | I'm glad you are helping spread the word. Just remember that some, like the about us one and the post card, are suited to cancer treatment facilities, and the what you need to know one, is designed for dental, ent, and medical office waiting rooms. Thanks for doing this.

Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 5,260 | I will do anything to spread the word. I don't want anyone going thru this if they have a chance to eliminate it. If it helps one person, it's well worth doing it.

Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 5,260 | I took the brocures with me this morning. Dr Pollock asked what I had so I showed them to him. He told the nurse to make a place that is obvious to put them, It seems he has checked out the site and knows about it. When I came out from rads,, the nurse said she had everything in place and the Dr agreed that they will be good reading for his patients. Thanks again Brian
