Carepages Helps Families Communicate about Sick Loved Ones
Friday, February 8, 2008 2:44I first stumbled on to Carepages after the pre-school aged son of a woman whose blog I followed was diagnosed with cancer. She still uses his CarePage to keep family and friends informed about his treatments and the ups and downs of living with cancer.
There are many different kinds of people on CarePages, from a young father going through treatment for malignant mesothelioma, to a teenager with leukemia and parents of preemies and other NICU babies. CarePages is an excellent, free resource, which helps bind family a friends together during difficult times by making it easy for them to share updates, photos and messages of support.
Last year, I even built my own CarePage to give updates on my third pregnancy, in case we ended up in the NICU again. Thanksfully, we din’t need it for that, but it’s still been a nice place to jot down notes and updates on my pregnancy, and now our son’s life. I encourage all of you to check out this valuable resource.
