Hi! Newbie here. R:-D

Hi all! My name is Rachelle and I will be having surgery on Feb. 11 in Grinnell. Just heard about the site at the monthly Support Group meeting and am exploring. I have met some of the warmest, most welcoming people in Grinnell, and I do look forward to getting to know everyone better. Just wanted to say hi! Rachelle

Hi Rachelle and Welcome! There is alot of great info on this board (both the state board and the main board) so have fun exploring them both! If you have questions about the surgery feel free to ask away! Stephanie

Hi Rachelle! Welcome to our little world! Congrats on your date and I wish you the best with your surgery - keep us posted! You will be in our thoughts and prayers. Take care Carol

Welcome Rachelle, Good luck with your upcoming surgery. You will find lots of info on this site BUT you'll find the best support right here Welcome again...Carolyn

Hi Rachelle. Welcome to the boards. You will get a lot of information and support here - and meet a lot of wonderful people. Enjoy! Andrea

Hi Rachelle! If you ever need a ride to Grinnell for support groups, give me a call! I'm just a whistle away from you, in Pleasant Hill. I had my surgery in July in Grinnell- you are going to love them there! Welcome to the losers, Jeri

Welcome to our little group, Rachelle! If you every have any questions, no matter how embarrassing or silly (although there is no such thing as a dumb question), make sure you ask away! Hope to see you post again soon!! Julie
