KosAbility diaries can be 1 paragraph, or 2, or 20 — on whatever health-medical or related concerns that
you our members & friends have in mind to talk and write about: post comments or
contact postmodernista with your ideas.
Normally, we'd have a collection of links right around here. I was going to do that. I went to Medscape to collect some links on migraines, but after putting "migraine" in the search field and clicking on the little magifying glass icon, I remembered that the search function there has never worked for me. It didn't work this time, either. So I thought I'd mention it here to see if anyone else has that problem or any suggestions I might try. There are a lot of online resources for medical information, of course, but Medscape is one of the better ones.
Also normally, we'd have our boilerplate box up here above the fold, but today we're rolling out a new design, so I put it below the fold for dramatic effect.
Ta-dah!
KosAbility is a Sunday 7 pm eastkost/4 pm leftkost volunteer diarist community of, by & for people living with disabilities, who love someone with a disability, or who want to know more about the issues. Our use of "disability" includes temporary as well as permanent health/medical conditions, and small, gnawing problems as well as major, life-threatening ones. Our use of "love someone" extends to cherished members of other species.
Our discussions are open threads in the context of this community. Feel free to comment on the diary topic, ask questions of the diarist or generally to everyone, share something you've learned, tell bad jokes, post photos, or rage about your situation. Our only rule is to be kind; trolls will be spayed or neutered. If you are interested in contributing a diary, contact series coordinator postmodernista.
