Support Group in north western IL?
Amy, you're probably looking for a group in northeastern IL rather than northwestern. My sister lives in Waukegan, so I know that's too far to go to Rockford or Belvidere, but Harvard or McHenry may work. Check at the link below, or you can try the place you're having surgery at.
