Greetings.
 
We are seeking your assistance in identifying Internet resources related
to helping people cope with major illness, physical loss, bereavement or
grief.  Our goal is to produce a guide (in both ASCII and HTML formats) to
these emotional support resources on the Internet.  This guide will be
published in December 1994 in the University of Michigan's Clearinghouse
for Subject-Oriented Internet Resource Guides, available at URL:
http://http2.sils.umich.edu/~lou/chhome.html
 
We are interested in any form of Internet resource, including:
newsgroups, newsletters, discussion groups, BBS's, gophers, WorldWideWeb
pages, or ftp sites.  Also, if you know of any individuals who are
familiar with this topic and its resources, please forward their addresses
to us.   We are already familiar with the Psychology & Support Groups
Newsgroup Pointer by John M. Grohol (which has been crossposted to a
number of newsgroups); the Disability-Related Resources guide in the
University of Michigan Clearinghouse; and the GriefNet gopher from
Rivendell Resources.
 
We hope that our guide will be a valuable tool to those seeking support
in situations of physical loss or bereavement.  Many thanks for your help
in this project.
