Book Club

[MountainSeeker]

Hi All

Eight of us from this community forum have been meeting regularly as a Book Club since the beginning of Autumn last year. The aim was to read and learn together about ovarian cancer, treatments, research and approaches.

We are meeting fortnightly at 2pm on a Wednesday afternoon usually for about an hour-and-a-half to discuss what we have watched or read, and reflect on it in the context of our lived experience. For example, we have looked at Rebel Cell by Kat Arney and AntiCancer by Dr David Servan-Schrieber, and we have shared links of talks and articles.

We would welcome anyone who would like to join. Let us know if you are interested by popping a message in the chat.

Warm wishes, Jo

Great idea. Do you meet online or face to face? I'm in Perth Australia so either probably a challenge but could try if online.

Hi RoseMS

Would you like to put your email in the chat (paper areoplane icon top right-hand corner of this screen) and I can connect you with the other book club members on email and send you the Zoom link codes.

Warm wishes, Jo

Hello Mountain Seeker~ thanks for posting the BookGroup titles. Guessing you are in the UK? I’m on the west coast in Oregon so not sure if Zoom is do-able.

Hi Dragon-Slayer

Are you an early morning person? I guess it would be 6am your time. Have a think, if you want to make a go of it pop let me know.

Or you could set up a franchise in the States?

Warm wishes, Jo

Thanks Jo. Maybe I’ll just follow your titles. Thanks so much for posting them; I can feel overwhelmed sorting through the literature. I’ll reconnect if I think I can make 6 a.m.!
