Cheers for Chemo101.com!

Just want to share this message received today from Chemo101.com. Conversation Starters has been proud to help in the launch of this wonderful resource for chemotherapy patients, their caregivers and health care providers.

Not having cancer is akin to not being in a car accident. Today. But what about tomorrow? We know, we've lived and survived the experience at our house.

Thanks to everyone who has supported Chemo101.com in our effort to win a Pepsi Refresh Grant. Our work is just beginning.

Nothing ever prepares someone for a cancer diagnosis. But patients can be better prepared for what comes next, which often includes chemotherapy with a website like chemo101.com. We would like to thank you for your daily votes, patience and understanding with the emails, texts, messages and barrage of information to get the word out about chemo101 and Pepsi Refresh in September. Here's the good news...it worked! We have almost 200 followers
now on Twitter, we have had 130+ join the chemo101 group on Linked-in, and almost 100 people joined us on the chemo101 Facebook group...so, yes- the word got out thanks to all your hard work! THANK YOU!!
Not winning the Pepsi Refresh Grant this month will not slow down our progress. We are tracking towards our chemo101 beta site to be launched within the next 4-6 weeks, we have market research surveys and events going on now, and we will be formalizing our Board of Directors for the non-profit arm of Chemo101 within the next 2-3 weeks. So look forward to being the first group to get the update email announcement about our upcoming launch date for Chemo101!!
