Get Connected Day!
This is the Get Connected post, which is a place where you can introduce yourself if you'd like to widen your connections.
What to do...
Comment to this post (use the comment form at the bottom of the page) with a short note about yourself and who you're looking to connect to. Easy!
If you see someone with experience similar to yours, who you'd like to connect to, then just click their username (in their post) and you will end up on their profile page. Then all you need to do is look on the left side of the page under their picture and you'll see an "add contact" link and follow the prompts.
Why connect to others?
One of the good things about connecting to others, is that all of their blog posts will show up on your homepage in a reading list. So if you haven't visited the site in a few days, you'll still see what everyone is up to!
Important note
Remember to check your own privacy settings on your "edit" page. There's no need to reveal anything personal or private, but if you want others to connect to you, you should make some of your My Profile settings "public" so others can find out a bit about you (eg. 'my story', 'about' me' and 'breast cancer experience').
If you're not sure what to do, you might like to read this post on how to change your privacy settings.
Have fun!

Hi Everyone...I haven't blogged since returning from the summit! Just had a quick browse through the latest comments. My thoughts are with you all and I promise to get back online asap...just got a few (few too many) things to get on top of first. Where did the days go before dr appointments became the norm????? I remember when I didn't have a regular gp because I rarely needed to see one...HAH! I'm now on first term, friendly basis with everyone at my gp clinic! One prob leads to the next...I am though available for a chat with anyone that needs an ear. Never too busy to help if needed. Actually, I wouldn't mind hearing from any of you ladies that are brca 1 or 2 positive. I just learned of some brca1 positive genes on my dad's side, history of early breast cancer and ovarian cancer and want to get tested.

Hi there Anne, welcome to the land of blog. I haven't clicked on your name to see if you have "blogged" or introduced yourself .... I'll do that in a minute.
No matter what stage of this journey you are on at the moment you will find plenty of like-minded ladies here, whether they are on a chemo hi, extroverts, closet maniacs. We are all here and we will be your friends from now til whenever !!!
Luv .. Shirlx0x
I want to connect with everyone - is this part of my chemo high? Manic defence? Normal extroversion? who cares why - just be my BCNA friend!
love Anne

Isn't this good that we can get a laugh!!!!
Being an artist I said it as I thought, can you just paint one on?
I just think the whole process is amazing full-stop.
And to feel good about it all, is just wonderful.
Thanks to advances in science and technology we get good boobs....
