Not a silly question Wendy and I'm sure there will be kinks for us to work out for the first time around. Gwen is shooting for a release date of March 21st. Here's hoping. She's a busy lady. We'll try and make it available on line (I'm not sure if she has Adobe so that it can be saved as a pdf file. I'd then put it up on the website. But yes; it'll also be mailed)
If anyone has any suggestions at any time for upcoming issues please forward it to gwen@copdcanada.ca

I get uncomfortable with this one....... If at any time anyone wants to make a small donation they can send it to: COPD Canada Patient Network 3047 Old Sambro Rd Williamswood, NS B3V 1E6 Canada At the present time we can only accept checks or money orders (if outside Canada, International money orders; like Western Union) or cash . All of what we've been doing has been out of pocket. Either way we'll still ensure folks get the newsletter etc. We also have an educational DVD compiled (intended for non COPDer's, those who don't have access to the net, family members who suspect a loved one has the disease and the individual themselves who Knows there's something wrong with their breathing etc. The people that are harder to reach; such as in small communities and the like. Our first aim is to get it into the library systems.
