Find it here!
Let's make this thread a collection of Finding Your Tribe CP threads!

So if you're looking for chicken pox, (or have it and are will share!) start a thread (or locate the existing one) for your geographical area tribe, then put a link to it here.

We've had a few posts from far-away people in my local FYT CP thread, and would love to help everyone connect, since timing is of the essence. Many people don't seem to use their local-tribe forums, so this will be a handy way to get the information out there.

Here's the CP thread for Vermont/New Hampshire/Maine:

(While I respect that some will take issue with 'pox partying, I ask that any debate on the topic be taken to a separate thread.

: )

great idea, R- thanks for doing this.

i just wanted to add that these sub-tribes are by no means exclusive. if you don't live in ME/NH/VT, but you're willing to drive up this way (ME is vacationland, after all

), you're more than welcome!

 

[SereneBabe]

love the idea!

subscribing... maybe we can gradually bring the pox down from Maine to Cape Cod (and beyond).

LOL.

Jessica

 

[ramlita]

Where is Plymouth, Ma? is it on the Cape?
Maybe we can spread it that way...
Did you see we're havin some action in the VT/NH/ME thread?

(first link in this thread)

 

[bu's mama]

I'm always on the lookout

Maybe some will make it's way over here to Long Island!

 

[ramlita]

More active pox!!!
This is in Minneapolis:

[caspian's mama]

i'm in ME and trying to contact it from keene, NH. if we're successful, i'm more than willing to spread it to the greater boston area, as well as central CT. i'll keep y'all posted.

 

[jessjgh1]

Plymouth is about 1 hour south of Boston, just before you cross the bridge to the cape.

So if someone from NH travels to Maine... and someone from Boston travels to NH and someone from plymouth/cape travels to Boston and likewise CT and NY.... we can slowly spread it down the east coast...

SOrry, just in a weird mood right now.

G'Night.... Nak

[gret the great]

I'll share them in Western MA, southern VT.
We "partied" with pox yesterday so we're in waiting stage.

 

[caspian's mama]

hullo, fellow pox seekers. i just wanted to suggest that you guys keep it toned down a bit. i just got flamed (via pm) by a senior member who apparently is just reading these threads in search of anti-vax people to target. i post on a few pox-y threads, so i don't know if she was specifically watching this one, but i just wanted to give a heads up.

that said, i'll still be checking back here when/if ds becomes contagious.

 

[jessjgh1]

Arent' personal attacks by pm a violation of the user agreement?

Or maybe I'm just not understanding what you mean by 'targetting' anti-vax people.

That just seems so un-mdc

Please keep us posted - I am a good distance west of you (in OH), but my parents are in NH - I owe them a visit and will drive there!! A small detour through MA would certainly work for us!

And BOO on the mama flaming people for not vaxing. It's not any of her business.
