<p>The group [guild] this message refers to is a peer support group for
SCA folk worldwide who live with Chronic Physical Illness and Chronic Pain
Syndromes, it is also for those who love/ care for them. [ friends and
family]
<p>There are scores of list members with conditions from A to Z [ illnesses
like Auto immune / Connective tissue disorders/ Fibromyalgia/ Crohn's disease
/Rheumatic disorders/ Arthritis [all types]/ Collagen Vascular disorders/
RSD/ MS/ Carpal tunnel/ minimal brain injuries/ diabetes/Heart diseases
/ breathing disorders/blood disorders/ physical infirmities/ epilepsy /
and any others not listed here ] Again, all chronic, intractable physical
illnesses / limitations and Chronic Pain Syndromes are welcome and supported
here.
<p>The list is a place to share tips and tricks for getting through
the day. It's also a place to get support [ hard to come by in the everyday
world and, sadly sometimes in our various "societies" too.] as well as
a place to learn more about these various conditions from others
who live with them and from links to national associations for these disorders.
<p>While this group is here for those with the disorders, remember
it is also here for the loved ones, friends and family of people with these
disorders as well. In my humble experience, those who support us suffer
less anxiety and frustration with more information... and I wish it to
be a place that will allow them to share their burdens as well, hopefully
helping to reduce "caregiver burnout" , and thereby aiding them to continue
aiding us down our sometimes rocky paths to a "happily ever after".
