Cancer Support Group in Georgioupolis
A Cancer Support Group has been formed for people who have been through or who are undergoing treatment for cancer, and also for those who have recently lost significant others to this disease. These are the needs of the current group. It is a diverse and flexible group, and different sub-groups can be formed later on an "as needed" basis. This is a support group not a therapy group, and confidentiality is a given. There is no fee. Meetings will be held on the first Monday of every month in Georgioupolis, from 11am - 1pm at Oasis Café - Bar, is off the main square, near the big church (please note the change of venue). Carpooling available from Rethymnon.

Kiki Needs a Good Home
Kikί was rescued at age 2 months from a country road here in Western Crete. Twenty-four hours after her rescue, she began to experience seizures. For six months Kikί has been on Phenobarbital (Gardenal) twice a day, easily administered with canned cat food, and she has not had a seizure since she began the medication. In addition, Kikί has had her vaccinations and has been spayed. Kikί interacts well with both cats and dogs, but she will never become an outside cat. If you can become Kiki's permanent home, please call Mary at 693-419-7767
