Pamphlets

[justme]

Not really for the forums, but don't know where to bring it up . . .

It sounds like a lot of us don't get good medical info. Some of us are even diagnosed in our charts but nobody says anything to us. I would like to recommend pamphlets so that doctors could hand them out with basic info and, more importantly, tell people to go the forums for support. I recognize it could be costly and difficult, but I think if you asked everyone here they would donate a few bucks to help others or if you put it online maybe those who could print would print them out and take them to their local hospitals. I think getting out the info would really help a lot of people - unfortunately many seem to find these wonderful forums and the helpful info on this site too late. I know that we all want to do everything we can to help others.

There are pamphlets available online. Some people have printed them out and taken them to their doctor's offices, everyone is welcome to distribute them. http://www.helpher.org/mothers/survival ... /index.php
