Technology is great in this day and age . We can connect with people we have not spoken with in years on sites like Facebook and twitter along with the many others.
Well Treatment Diaries : http://www.treatmentdiaries.com/
has taken social media to the next level for the chronically ill and also caretakers of the chronically ill. This is such a great site for people to share their experiences if they choose to help others that may be going through the same.
Please read more about Treatment Diaries below :
Living your life with a chronic condition or caring for someone with an on-going illness is perhaps one of life’s greatest challenges, demanding significant perseverance and genuine support. Whether you are a patient, caregiver, family member or advocate - doctors offer medical assistance, loved ones provide empathy for a short period - but who really understands the daily struggle and the questions you live with; “Why me?” or “What can I do to help make it stop?” or “Why won’t the pain just go away?” The answer: ONLY you and those who share your condition and experience! The good news, at Treatment Diaries, no matter what the condition or situation - YOU are no longer alone.
Treatment Diaries is a social network for people just like you who are living with or caring for someone with a chronic illness. This community is a supportive sounding board; they share your experiences, they offer advice … they care. When I began my battle with a chronic illness in 2004, just like you, I needed support that would be lasting and not temporary. Too often our circle of friends and family grow tired of our daily struggle and distance themselves from the topic of the conditions which plague us. So I created Treatment Diaries; a place where we can make connections with people facing our same challenges. It was, and still is, the best medicine I can find for on-going support and friendship in my daily struggles.
“We want people to make authentic, quality, lifelong, and if they wish anonymous connections, and inspire others to live life to the fullest, no matter what their condition.”
