I noticed there is a chat room available. Is there a weekly scheduled chat? If yes, when and what time?

    Weekly EC Chat
    JoAnn,

    I am not aware of a weekly chat on CSN dedicated specifically to esophageal cancer. However, the Association of Cancer Online Resources (ACOR) has one on Sunday and Wednesday evenings.

    Please find below their announcement:

    Reminder: EC Live Chat!

    Date: Every Sunday and Wednesday
    Time: 8:00pm to 9:00pm [Eastern Standard Time!]

    Note: Make sure JAVA is downloaded on your computer.

    When asked for a USER ID, write in whatever you want. (Some variation of your
    name is best, but if you do not want your name known, make one up,
    but [hint], plain "Bob" or "Jane" is easier for us to type and remember
    than "KQrxT9x", or "SjnFLPq").

    Location: http://ericpix.net/chatchat or the old address at:
    http://ngc1514.com/chat

    Comment: Join the Chat Group, comprised of patients, care givers and
    survivors, where experiences are shared, and make new friends.

    For Help Contact: Eric at eric@ericpix.net

    Your hosts are Eric and Mickey



    Best Regards,

    Paul Adams
    McCormick, South Carolina

    DX 10/22/2009 T2N1M0 Stage IIB
    12/03/2009 Ivor Lewis
    2/8 through 6/14/2010 Adjuvant Chemo Cisplatin, Epirubicin, 5 FU

    Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we are here we might as well dance!
