Journal Entry
Hello!
June 18, 2008Pleased to meet you all! My name is Sahar and I just finished my sophomore year at the University of California, Irvine. I am from the Bay Area and I’m spending this summer at home. I just started a six-week internship at the Aedeas Group and I’m really excited about it. I am in charge of Community Support on the WeAre websites. I think that WeAre is an extremely valuable way for like-minded people and people with similar conditions to interact with each other in a positive environment. What I like most about WeAre.Us is that it is a fruitful and free way to bring people together and to, thus, make people feel as if they are not alone in their visions and conditions. People that have a connection with specific diseases can build a sense of community with each other. I foresee WeAre as being a popular website that can be used for both educational and social purposes.
I would like to get to know all of you and get your feedback on the website. Feel free to befriend me and invite your friends to join the websites!
I found an informative picture of the genetics of Huntington's Disease and I would like to share it with you. From the picture, one can conclude that genetics play a vital role in the contraction of the disease.
