Hi Lisa! I got an email and have spoken with Deborah's assistant regarding the study. My interview is set for Friday, Feb. 26th. I'm so excited. I spoke with the study assistant, Adrian, at length today and he wanted a copy of the Mediterranean Diet for himself.

Thanks so much for passing on my info! I'll keep you updated.

    Hi Guys
    Lisa P. (Scouty) had posted about 6 weeks ago that the University/ School of nursing was doing a study on exercise as a means to stay healthy for Stage III's who are NED and finished with chemo. She had those interested private message her. Our names and info was turned over to the woman in charge of the study.

    I've gotten several emails and a phone call from the study assistant. My interview has been scheduled for Feb. 26th. I have no idea if you can still get on the list. You could pm Scouty to ask. :-)

    All stages of CRC
    Not just stage III, all stages. You need to be NED and exercise regularly. The plan is to do some sort of inspirational message to those just on the start of the journey as to how exercise can help them.

    I know of 2 that have heard from UNC, 8 of us haven't yet.

    I'm not sure they are still in need of people but you can send me a PM if you are interested.
