Re: British Columbia Families? Get together?

I am bumping this post up. I know from having coordinated and run the West Coast Erb's Palsy Support Group many many years ago that there are familes here in BC still, and I would really love to re-connect with you.

Re: Tendonitis in non BPI arm

Hope & Brittwitt, Your messages BOTH brought tears to my eyes. First because you both really connected to what I was asking, and due to your age, would be very relatable for Dani to hear. She is coming to terms with the scope of this injury.....at 15. I will pass along this whole thread and have...

I organized a support group, and was actively doing outreach work when requested to help new familes. (West Coast Erb's Palsy Support Group). After so...
