A reminder of our group meeting in Salem wednesday evening.  Looking forward to a great turnout, there will be a guest speaker Dr. Elaine Broski, to speak a little about those of us who are concerned about how to keep off what we have lost and not get on the regaining wagon.

Same time and place, salem hospital basement room D, just follow the signs.

I live in Newport.  I feel alone here too.  My husband also had wls.  I know of another person who lives  here that has had wls too.  All three of us had surgery by Dr. Read in Corvallils.  They have a support group there but I find it's hard to get there. 

Where are  you on the coast?
