PA Support (mind, body and soul) was originally created so that people with PA or another chronic disease and family, friends, and partners could join together in a safe and healthy environment.
The most important piece of this idea is that we co-exist in a safe forum. There are no governing rules to this group except 4 simple ideas:
1. We must always be kind
2. We must always speak in "I" terms and not assume things for others
3. We do not dictate how people post as long as it's kind and unassuming
4. Any and all group issues will be taken out of group and discussed privately with one of the owners
We have found over the past year plus......that we have not only had a lovely community but one in which people are open, have formed lasting friendships and have a safe and wonderful place to go.
We also would like to remind people that this is not a medical board. We encourage people to see doctors to understand their disease and make an informed decision about what the best treatment is for that person. Opinions here are strictly opinions by members and not medical consultations.
In joining this group you agree to the above mentioned "rules"
We welcome you

Special quote by one of our members:
In spite of it all, we will forever fly with the angels even if while our bodies sleep. We will never let anything or anyone destroy our spirits. Never. We will flash them out with our aurora borealis lights and soar on through the universe to greater heights than the mundane lows of our lives. We are free within. - Ruthie
