@Jantet A Thank you for posting the link to this very interesting article. I followed the steps (including loading a dodgy photo of myself) to create a group of childless women in Brisbane. I named it "Breast cancer and childless". After following the required steps, it asked me for money n USD. Whilst I enjoyed reading the article about Jody Day and the fact that she too is childless (as far as I know she does not have BC) and is getting world recognition for her circumstance, I was a little thrown about having to give money. I realise that virtually nothing (except this forum) is free. To the best of my knowledge, I was signing up to be part of a group of women world wide that are childless for whatever reason. I liked the idea of starting a group in my own city but I draw the line at financial contributions. Apart from the fact that I am not in a position to contribute (on chemo unable to work) I don't think it is appropriate when all I was trying to do was meet up with people in the same situation as myself. Having said that, there are some very interesting and well written articles there. I am curious if anyone else followed the link and if so what did they think of it?
