That sounds wonderful for cancer patients!
Wellspring sounds lovely...wish there was one in Los Angeles!!
Wellspring works!! I seriously hope they do open one in Edmonton. I have been to the one here in Toronto (there are a few chapters) and it is an incredibly caring, informative and comforting place. So many workshops, therapies, support groups. Simply wonderful!!!
Thanks for the link!
Enjoyed your blog!

Hey, I can look again but I didn't see a place to add yourself as a follower of your cancer blog.
Never mind. Now I found it. For some reason it didn't show up the first time
Sounds like the Wellness Community in the US, which I would recommend to your American readers.
