My 13 year old daughter wants to write a regular column in the Public Health Alert newspaper for Kids/Teens.
She wants to include topics such as:
What it is like to have chronically ill parents...questions kids may ask.
How kids/teens deal with their own chronic illnesses
How illness has effected my family
She also wants to explore health issues that are common with teenagers such as : Anorexia, bulemia, "cutting" or self-injury, depression, anger management, being bullied, etc...
So if you could help me spread this information to all the Lyme communities, and other chronic illness forums with families that would have kids/teens that would be interested in submitting questions or article suggestions, i would appreciate it!
Have kids/teens send questions to [email protected] and put JUST ASK LAURA in the subject field.
This is just in the beginning stages and Laura would like to hear from other kids/teens about what they would like to see in a column especially geared to their interests.
