I'm going in on the 10th and I'd love to join! Any objection to having a sleever-to-be, even though the group name is RNY? ;)

I am having my surgery on December 5th, 2013, and I'd love to join your group.
I did a quick Google search and found that Memorial Hospital at South Bend has a monthly support group for WLS patients. Give them a call; hospitals that host support groups usually welcome everyone - even those that had their surgery elsewhere (and family and friends). I know I am having my surgery 4 hours out of town, so going to their support group is out of the question. However, Sarasota Memorial Hospital (in the town where I live) has a monthly support group and it's open to everyone, no charge.
Any large hospital near you that has a bariatric program will almost always offer a support group. It's worth it to call and ask. In the meantime, you are welcome to hang out with us here. We have several members having their surgery in January. My feeling is the more support and encouragement we get, the better!

I'm having my surgery in January, I live in South Bend Indiana and was looking for a support group to go to. I cannot travel that far because my vehicle is having some problems at this time and I don't trust it to drive far. Is there any groups anywhere around here ? Thanks
