Support

Support is one of those things we all need from time to time & sometimes we find it hard to find or accept support from others. 

Support groups are a good way to communicate with others in similar situations as yourself & are a place to receive friendly support & advice.  You can help support others, receive support & make new friends. Its a win win really :') 

Speaking to somebody who has experienced or is going through a similar situation is good as you can compare & gain useful knowledge, which may help you. 

I have personally found comfort in reading other peoples blogs about external-fixation &  in particular a Facebook support page.

There is a Facebook support group page for External-Fixation  &  Ilizarov frames which I have found very useful & informative. I have been able to use this page to view other peoples achievements, concerns & advice. There are some really good pictures & a few videos which are useful to watch. 

The link for the support page is: https://www.facebook.com/Ilizarov.ExternalFixator.Support?hc_location=stream 

Or search in the Facebook search bar for: external-fixation support group

The support page states;

''Our aim is to bring together people with Ilizarov / External Fixators; to provide support, information and share experiences.''

I would highly recommend having a look & trying it out!

You can find other useful blogs about external-fixation which I have read on my reading list and I have listed some useful websites at the bottom of the page. :')


Is there anything else you would like to see on this blog?
