Crohn's Disease Support Group

Hello All,

I know we've had a previous discussion on having a chat room for us to use and i said that i would try to get one up and running soon. It's been a rough couple of weeks for me dealing with crohn's and other stuff so I wasn't able to do it when i had planed.

The good news is that I was able to work on it in the last 48 hours and I came up with this site that we can use for now . I know its not the greatest looking chat room, but it easily accessible and you dont have to jump through a lot of technical hoops to enter it and this way whomever wants to use it can do when at there leisure, in case one of the group leaders cant be there to help.

I know we thought about setting aside a time to have a chat and we can still do that eventually as i want to test this chat out first before i set something in stone. I will post the link below and you guys can go at your leisure and see how you like it. It set up so that you can immediately setup your screen name and small profile and start chatting, so if you and another forum member wants to go in and babble back and forth, go ahead! I want this to happen so that i can see how it works so i will know if i will have to choose another method. Thanks and let me know what you all think

I look forward to chatting with members of the group soon! I think this was an EXCELLENT satep for ALL of us. Again thanks to David!

PLEASE CHECK IT OUT!!!! http://crohnschat.bravehost.com/

Hey David, I was checking out your chat room and saw that you have a chat scheduled for Thursday, the 18th of Sept. at 7:00 PM and was wondering, do you still do that and what time zone is that in?

Thanks David for setting this up. I think it will be very helpful. I went in and checked it out. So I look forward to chatting with all of you later.

Does anyone go into the chatroom? Would love to connect in real time with anyone who wants to talk.

Well...It's basically a go at your own leisure type of thing now. Originally it was going to be a set time but not any more. Its open 24/7, so if a couple of members want to go in and chat, they can. I pop in from time to time when i feel well to see if anyones in there.....also the time 7:00 thing is an error that i am trying to correct so disregard please.

Hi I registered. It was quite easy. No-one on at the time I was so I can't say how well it works when chatting.

Cheers
