First, the April Blog Carnival of Mental Health, themed self-care, is now up at Nyx’s Journal. The May carnival will be hosted at The Madosphere, on the theme of patients and professionals. Submit your post in a comment there by May 25 and check back to see the posts a while later.
Second, I am hosting the Disability Blog Carnival this month. The theme for this month’s carnival is care. This could be health or social care, but also the care family members provide each other or self-care, of course. Please submit your posts in a comment here or E-mail me by May 25. I will post the carnival on May 29.
