KANSAS CITY SUPPORT GROUP
i REALLY ENJOYED THE SUPPORT GROUP MEETING LAST NIGHT I LOOK FORWARD TO IT EACH MONTH HOWEVER IF ATTENDANCE DOESNT PICK UP THEN IT MAY NOT BE WORTH IT FOR COLETTE TO DRIVE ALL THE WAY TO LEE'S SUMMIT. AT ONE POINT I THOUGHT THAT I DIDNT NEED IT, BUT MY NIECE INFORMED ME THAT IT IS JUST AS IMPORTANT FOR ME TO ATTEND MY SUPPORT GROUP MEETING AS IT IS FOR AN ALCOHOLIC TO ATTEND AN AA MEETING. I GET UP EVERY MORNING AT 4:30 A.M. TO GET READY FOR WORK. ONCE A MONTH I MAKE THE SACRIFICE AND STAY UP A LITTLE LATER. THERE WERE ONLY 4 OF US AT THE MEETING LAST NIGHT. I THINK THAT AS A RESULT OF THE THOUGHT OF LOSING THIS SUPPORT GROUP, THAT MY NERVES WERE MESSED UP. AND THEREFORE I DIDNT SLEEP WELL, AND HAVE SPENT MANY HOURS IN THE BATHROOM. DO WE REALLY WANT TO LOSE THIS GROUP? MY ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY IS COMING UP SOON, AND I DO NOT THINK THAT I WOULD HAVE MADE IT THIS FAR WITHOUT THE HELP OF THOSE IN THE GROUP. COLETTE HAS BEEN THERE FOR ME AS WELL AS MANY OTHERS, SHE IS ONLY A PHONE CALL AWAY. CHIP IS STILL IN THE HOSPITAL AND CONTINUES TO HAVE BLEEDING. WE CALLED HIM FROM THE GROUP LAST NIGHT. I NEED THIS SUPPORT GROUP, CONGRATS TO KAREN WITH HER NEW JOB AND HER MOVE TO SAINT LOUIS. WE WILL NOT MEET IN MAY FOR SUPPORT GROUP MEETING, HOWEVER I BELIEVE THAT WE ARE GOING TO HAVE AN INDOOR PICNIC IN JUNE. JUNE 23 IS THE DATE. THE DATES TO MARK YOUR CALENDAR FOR ARE AS FOLLOWS: JUNE 23 JULY 28 AUGUST 25 SEPT 22
HOWEVER IF WE CANT BRING OUR ATTENDANCE UP THEN WE MAY BE FORCED TO STOP HAVING THE MEETINGS. TALK TO ME KANSAS CITY, DO WE WANT TO GIVE UP THIS FACILITY THAT IS CLEAN AND FREE. DO WE WANT TO LOSE OUR WONDERFUL LEADER. PLEASE TALK TO ME AND LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK, THESE ARE ONLY MY OPINIONS, BUT I DO WANT TO KNOW WHAT OTHERS THINK. THANKS TO TONY FOR OPENING THE BUILDING EACH MONTH FOR US. NEEDING YOUR SUPPORT TOO, THANKS, THELMA
