I might go. I'm very shy, what is it like? Did the Dr. give you a listing of the meetings? He never talked about them with me. So I wasn't sure when they were. I know someone was saying they were on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Are they 2 hours long? Jason

Ill give you a little history as to how I found out about the meetings. I was on here looking for a surgeon. Seeing how Dr. B is the closest surgeon to New Bedford that actually HAD patients, I emailed one of them: MaryLyn Ramos. She posted to you, on your first thread I think. She told me about the meetings a year ago. So Ive been getting their mass emails for a while.. from everyone in the support group. (you can email me and Ill ask them to add you on, if you want) The group is fun. Its the 3rd Tuesday of every month. The meeting is 2 hours long.. there is another man there and he's cool so you dont have to worry about being the odd man out.. lol. Last month was my first meeting (since backing out of surg. I thought I needed the support) I wanted to go the next day, it was that nice. All we did was sit around and talk about the surgery, life after, what Dr. B requires now.. etc. Its good to be around the success stories. Im shy too and I felt pretty comfortable, even tho when I talk in front of a group I mumble my words.. lol. Its not formal or anything.. just bring some water, sit down and chat! The next meeting is on the 27th of this month. It'll make my face sad if you dont go.
