****Our Help When Finding a Doctor...

I have recieved multiple requests for information on counselling and 'in the know' Doctors available to HG Sufferers in Canada. Sadly, I have not found any one particular resource. My personal suggestion to get the care you need (and if you've experience HG you DO need it)...

1) Search for Grief and/or Loss counselling.
2) E-mail the name of your chosen Counsellor or Therapist to me at JourneyforHG@hotmail.com, including their FULL mailing address.
3) I will then contact Ashli McCall with the information, and she will send out one of her books with a letter from Dr. Wall.
4) I will send out another information package to the counsellor or therapist including pictures of all our efforts with the run and dinner and general info.

***(Please allow 1 month between the time you find a counsellor or Doctor, and date of first appointment booked for mailing time.)

This is an attempt to inform the medical community BEFORE you meet with them. If you come in contact with ANY medical practitioner that tries to tell you the illness is 'in your mind', or that you 'don't want your children', or 'must not love your husband'...ect...
DO NOT LISTEN and find someone else!!!! You know the truth, and we are here to back you up.


We will go through this process as many times as needed until you recieve the proper care. Hold your heads up!!!

Thank you Ashli!!!



Ashli McCall, author of Beyond Morning Sickness, has generously donated 50 books to be sold at the dinner with 100% of the sales to be donated to our cause. To learn more about this wonderful book written about her own personal experiences with HG, please visit www.beyondmorningsickness.com.

She has also offered to send a copy of her book, with a letter from her Doctor to any Canadian Doc. we can give her the name and address for. Please e-mail your Doctors name and address to JourneyforHG@hotmail.com , so we can spread the awareness to the medical community, and perhaps increase the level of care and understanding given to women sufferers. This truly is the ultimate goal. Thanks everyone!!!

Thank you Dr. Phil:)

Thank you so much. We would have had nowhere to turn without you.


Thank you Dr. Phil for doing HG justice on your show. I've now ordered 10 tapes, and will order more, that I am going to distribute to local Doctors. Hopefully it won't be as big a job as I am anticipating to have them watch the tapes with an open mind.
