There is a support group at Presbyterian Hospital- Charlotte. They meet on the 3rd Monday of every month. I'm usually there. I believe our next meeting is June 18 or 19. Which ever one is on a Monday. Just go in the fron t entrance of the hospital, go left towards the cafeteria and Childrens Hospital. There is an elevater down at the end of the hall. Go down to the basement, go left. There's usually signs telling you where to go.                                              Tiffany

Me to. That's one thing I'm looking forward to. Have a great vacation. I still have 2 months until mine, and will only be about 4 or 5 weeks out from surgery. I guess I won't be eating at the biggest buffet bar in Myrtle Beach. Hah! Hah!                              Tiffany

There is also a support group at CMC-Mercy the 3rd tuesday of the month at 6:00.

If there's anything specific you need help with or questions answered, just post on here or one of the main boards. This is a great resource tool.
