If you’ve been regular readers of either of my three blogs, Help My Hurt, Womb Within, and Cancer Commentary, you may be wondering where you they are and where you ended up if you clicked on the URLs for those sites.

All three blogs have been retired by b5media in their redesign and new direction. Instead, they now have portals and the Blisstree.com portal is for life and health issues. Although I don’t write those three blogs any more, I was asked if I’d stay and write in their general health section. I agreed because although I enjoyed writing those blogs, I was limited to issues regarding pain, pregnancy, and cancer. This gives me an opportunity to write about other interesting health issues too.

What I will miss is the regulars who read my blogs and I hope that they’ll follow me here. My blogs weren’t the only ones retired and some remained, so this new format really gives you the chance to see what else is available to you. I have a confession to make. I rarely looked around the other channels because they were a matter of “out of sight, out of mind.” But since Blisstree launched, I’ve been clicking on other blogs and thinking, “hey, this is really interesting.” So, maybe you will now too.

In the meantime, don’t forget that I have my Montreal on the Cheap blog (a part of the new Cities on the Cheap network). I also own and write Seniors Support and my own site, Marijke: Nurse Turned Writer. You’re all more than welcome to come over and have a visit.

A Note for my Alzheimer’s Notes readers. When you check out Alzheimer’s Notes, you’ll be redirected to b5media’s new venture, BlissTree.  Here you’ll find many exciting topics for great reading and information.

I’ll be writing here at BlissTree on topics under the parenting and crafts section and still will include posts about “parenting one’s parents,” which involves Alzheimer’s.  Since most of us are involved in other parenting and grandparenting activities, as well.  So you’ll find a variety of slants to the parenting field.

Let us know what you’d like to read about.

This has been quite a short time period for the advancement of the b5media network of which this Blog is a very happy member! Despite the opportunity, many found some “need” to present a negative view of a positive event. Rather than express my disgust with these so-called “professionals” I think I’ll stick to part of what the purpose of this Blog is - to show an example of how recovery principles work.

October is unofficially “10th Step Month.” And there are a number of places in the Tenth Step in the 12 and 12 that feel appropriate to the last days’ events. Here’s one;
