Take Charge Class

[Guest guest]

Finally got my computer up and running again and caught up on the last

weeks' postings. First, I want to thank you Heidi for all the

information you gave me. I wanted to know what tests, etc., to be

sure to have for the complete physical I am scheduled to have the end

of this month. Thank you very much for your response. I had a

practice session with my naturopathic physician yesterday and he

agreed with what you said and expanded a bit. So now I'm ready!

I wanted to tell everybody about a 6-week program I started. It's

called " Take Charge " and is designed for those with any kind of

chronic condition, and their caregivers. In my area it is held for 2

1/2 hours, once a week, for 6 weeks. The textbook is " Living a

Healthy Life with Chronic Conditions " by Kate Lorig, RN, DrPH,

Halstead Holman, MD, Sobel, MD, Daiana t, MPH, Virgina

, MPH, and n Minor, RPT, PHD.

Inside the book it says thousands of participants in the U.S.,

Australia, New Zealand, Canada and Great Britain have taken this

course. For any further information about the book, or the course,

please ask me - I don't want to overwhelm everybody with too much info

if you're not interested.

This week's section on " Anger, Fear and Frustration " really hit home

for me since the stupid computer crashed last week. And the cat was

ill (she's diabetic and 17 years old.) And the nausea was back. And

at work they don't seem to appreciate how much I do, when I'm feeling

so lousy. Anyway, things have to get better...

Aloha,
