Wondering how to talk to friends and family about your own health? It’s not always easy to talk to friends and family about our health, or things that are worrying us, and it can be difficult for them to know how to help. So why not let other people do the talking for you? Collect relevant pages or videos from across the website in your scrapbook and share it with friends and family members by email or on social media.
