Web Sites

American Cancer Society  -- This was one that I found to be very helpful.  Straight, useful information.

American Red Cross  -- You sort of forget about them until disaster strikes.  They do great work around the world, including some things you probably don't know about.

American Sleep Apnea Association -- Non-profit organization dedicated to educating people about sleep apnea, a condition that ground my life to a halt before a sharp doctor diagnosed my problem.  Many people who have it don't know it.

How Stuff Works -- Exactly what it says. You name it, they probably have an article explaining it.  Loads of information, and fun, too.

HysterSisters -- A woman-to-woman support site for women who are facing or recovering from a hysterectomy.  This was extremely helpful to my wife.  Outstanding site.

National Center for Missing and Exploited Children -- I sincerely hope that you will never need this site's services.  We did, and they were there.  They helped me to get my child home safely, and I am eternally grateful.  Please click here to see a list of missing children from my home state of North Carolina.  Have you seen these children?  

National Runaway Switchboard -- This site helped us, too, and I am equally grateful to them.

Special Olympics -- Once you are involved, you will be changed for the better.  I was.

Yellow Ribbon Suicide Prevention Program -- Geared toward teens.  Lots of help and resources available.

"A computer does not substitute for judgment any more than a pencil substitutes for literacy.  But writing without a pencil is no particular advantage."
