Web Site Helps People with Health Conditions and STDs Find Love and Friendship New Conditions Added
Atlanta, Georgia -- June 20, 2007 -- Prescription4Love.com, the dating and friendship service for people with special conditions, has added additional categories to its social networking Web Site. "The number of people signing up for Prescription4Love has been very strong lately", according to Ricky Durham (President of Prescription4Love.com ). "We have been getting many requests to include additional conditions in our database to aid people in finding friends with similar circumstances. New health condition categories: - Epilepsy - Arthritis - Little People - Multiple Sclerosis - Paraplegic - Quadriplegic - Transplant Patients - Parkinson's Disease - Burn Victims - Lupus - HPVIn addition to our original categories (Cancer, Diabetes, IBS and IBD, Obesity, Deafness, Allergies, Hepatitis, Infertility/Impotence, HIV, Herpes, Recovering Alcoholics), these additional conditions should make even more people feel at home with our service". Prescription4Love.com is an online dating service specializing in particular health circumstances, including STD conditions. These days, many people are seeking friends online and, consequently, specialized alternative dating services have emerged. Dating with a health condition or STD can be awkward, especially when it comes time to divulge your situation, so an online service such as Prescription4Love.com is there to help. Ricky points out, "Finding others with similar circumstances is a natural desire for everyone. Honesty is important, but finding an opportune situation to raise such subjects can be difficult. By using Prescription4Love.com, you can be honest in advance and progress to the next stages of friendships and relationships". Prescription4Love.com plans to be a free service initially to build its customer base. At that time, users will be offered a low monthly fee to remain as members, a portion of which will be given to a charity for each condition.

### Why prescription4love.com was created: Prescription4love.com was created several years ago because my brother had Crohns Disease (under IBD). At times he weighed between 75 lb. to 125 lb. His normal weight should have been around 150 lb. He also had a colostomy bag. It was hard for him to disclose his disease to anyone, but it was really hard for him to tell someone he had a colostomy bag. When do you tell someone that you have a colostomy bag. the first time you meet? The first date? The second? So I thought if he met someone at a website where everyone had the same condition, there would be nothing to disclose. My brother Keith passed away July 15, 2004. (http://www.mem.com/display/biography.asp?ID=517377) Back then the website was in the developmental stage but he liked the idea.
As we were developing the website, it came to my attention that there were so many people who had different conditions that might want to use my website for friendship or love. We began with 11 conditions, with plans to add more later. Some conditions were added because I knew someone with that issue. Strict diets have led me to add other conditions. Its was an idea created for my brother and similar people with specific health conditions who wanted to improve their lives through friendship or love.
