People sharing a common interest in an illness or another subject can communicate with one another using a list serv, a simple way to use the Internet. Participants send e-mail to a special address which forwards the message to all group members. The "discussion" does not occur live but develops from a series of topic-oriented messages sent and received over a period of time. You will receive several e-mail messages daily as long as you subscribe to the list. Three such groups are described below: BRAINTMR is a forum to discuss topics related to all types of brain tumors, whether benign or malignant. To subscribe, send a message from your e-mail account to: listserv@mitvma.mit.edu The text of your message should read: subscribe BRAINTMR <your name> Example: subscribe BRAINTMR Jane Doe EPILEPSY-L is an e-mail based support group for people with seizure disorders. Complete information is available at the Epilepsy List web page http://home.ease.lsoft.com/Archives/Epilepsy-L.html. HYCEPH-L is an information and support forum for hydrocephalus. To subscribe, send e-mail to: listserv@vm.utcc.utoronto.ca Text: subscribe HYCEPH-L <your name> Other Listserv mailing lists include DISABILITIES, CANCER-L, the Hem-Onc listserv (includes CNS Lymphoma), HOSPIC-L and bmt-talk; some of these are described in detail in the NCCS CANSEARCH guide mentioned above; many can be accessed through ONCOLINK's Automated E-mail Discussion Group Subscriber.
