Welcome to the

Manitoba Pulmonary Hypertension

Support Group Website!

**The background of this site is periwinkle for a reason!
Periwinkle is the color of the PH awareness ribbon!**

How the links work: On this page, if a word is underlined, AND is blue then it is a link. When you move your mouse arrow over it, your arrow should turn into a pointing hand. When it is a pointing hand, click it. That will activate the link, and take you to the page it is linked to.(once you have clicked on a link once, the color will change to purple. you can still click on it, the color change is just to show you that you have visited that site at least once.)

A font size trick: If the font of a website or e-mail is too small for you to read, here is a trick for making it bigger--this will only work if you have a wheel between the buttons on your mouse--Hold down the Ctrl button (found on the bottom row of your keyboard) and use the scrolling wheel on your mouse. Roll it one way to make the font bigger, and the other way to make it smaller.
