Carepartners

                   

 

Carepartners are the jewels in our lives. This is the section on

our PLWP website for carepartners to use in support of each other.     

 

TEAM MISSION: To be as informed, informative, and supportive as we possibly can, for our partners, spouses, parents, families and our children. To assist in the understanding of PD and to listen, encourage, understand and nurture. To be "there" for each other, and especially those trying to fathom what is happening to their partners, and more dauntingly, what we might expect to happen as PD progresses. And finally, to provide an ear to other PWP who may want to lean on an independant shoulder at times as well.

...... Bella

TEAM DIRECTOR; Virginia Fay,

MEMBERS ; Carl McLeod, Chris Hall, Ron Hager

We are trying to hunt some other supporters down.
EMAIL virginiaf@primus.com.au

 

 

To join the Friday evening chat with the care partners go here
 

MEETINGS: The core of this team  meets on most friday nights 7.30 pm..in a Yahoo Confrence room (Until our new site can accomodate us). All interested in joining us need only find aussiebella, pc_carl, or oshticker on Yahoo and we'll shanghai them in!

Vale Carl McLeod! We are all shocked and saddened by this terrible tragedy. Our friendship, love and support goes to his adored Carol, and their families. We will continue to meet, and sincerly hope that many more may be inspired to join us, by the dedication and persistence of our valued friend, so suddenly taken from us.

Does anyone have very simplified directions on how to work Yahoo? I've tried five times to get onto the
Friday evening chats, but I keep coming up with directions that look like Greek. I tried using the

Dearest Caregivers; I just wanted to wish all of you a JOYous Christmas filled with peace and love. My
husband on more than one occasion has said, I wish I could trade places with you. I know he sincerely
means that because it's so hard for you to see us lose part of ourselves as time goes on. God bless you all
for your endless love, comfort and care and may you have JOY in your heart each and every day of your
life. Merry Christmas Carolyn (Gunny)

Bella, I better not see you on MY corner! lololol To get all the features people want in a chat room we'll
have to purchase software, and we're looking at ways to get the right combination (cheap). Tell me what
you all would like to see on your carepartner part of the site besides the chat room. I would love to add
more substance to all the team 'rooms'. We'll get the right 'chat' soon. (p)

I have put in a request to the PLWP CarePartners Team Reporting Reception Committee, for us to have a
full blown chat room, with voice, and buzzing (paging) facilities. The wheels of progress are sometimes
slow to roll, however, bar prostituting myself, I will do everything possible to ensure we get what many
seem to think would be a friendly addition to our little escape area. Cheers Bella
