djzales, amo72002 and lumens2 to At Risk Group too! I hope you all
will be able to let your hair down and get comfortable here. Our
Memebers here are a wonderful bunch to get to know weather it is in
chats or in the messages they post. Some say that At Risk should be
just for persons at risk but through my travels in this disease you
need everyone pulling for the same final result. You need others who
are at risk so you can talk about what it is you face should you
decide to test. You need pos pHDs so you can see how they felt going
through testing and how they feel finding out about a pos result.
You need people who were at risk but are neg so you can get their
perspective on how they handled it all. You need caregivers so you
can get their side of being with a loved one while they are testing
or pos. This way you get many sides of a situation not just one. This
is why I decided to open this up to everyone. I know had I not had
people teaching me about this disease I don't know what I would of
done.

Here you will get support, you are able to ask any question without
judgement, you will get cyber hugs and believe me if some one says
sorry for your situation they really mean it as they have walked a
bit in your shoes and know it is not all roses. Please take your time
and see what we have in this group that might help you. We do have
regular schedual chats, Tuesday mornings at 11:00 AM Central and
12:00 PM Easter time with Misty as Moderator. And Thursday evenings
at 7:00 PM Central and 8:00 PM Eastern Time Moderated by Susie. I
know I met amo72002 and amyte33 last Friday in our chat, it was
really nice to have you both show up so we could meet you both. And
finally scarfaceclawau was able to get into her first chat! It was a
good chat we had going on and I am glad to those who showed up. So I
hope to meet you all in our next chat!
