Great time last night!!!

I had the best time last night at our 2nd Upstate Support Meeting We grew from 7 ladies at the first meeting to 10 last night!!!! I was so glad to meet Darquise and Marcey. You both are fabulous and look great. We will have to ride together next time. Phyllis...I was so glad you came. I have thought about you often. Susanne....you are just awesome. Everytime I look at you I am amazed. Dianne...you look fabulous. Your pics don't do you justice. Kathy, Tonya, Dawn and Melony....what can I say....you know I just love ya'll. I hope that at our next meeting we just continue to grow in numbers. I feel so good after seeing you all. I am like a kid in a candy store!!!! You all are just great and offer so much support. If you did not make it to the meeting, don't worry we will be having another one in a couple of weeks If I can make it that long!!!! Melissa

Melissa, Thank you so much for organizing this group. It was so necessary. I love all you ladies and am so glad that I get to meet so many wonderful ladies from the area. What a great time. I know our group will continue to grow. Things grow where good things are going on. Thanks Melissa, Melony

Its always great when we get together! I'm so glad I got to see everyone! It feels like we've known each other forever! I had a hard time getting the girl to go to bed last night. She only wanted to talk about her new friend Rachel. Susanne, you'll have to let her know that I really appreciated her keeping Teagan entertained. She loved her! I can't wait to do it again! Kathy

I have to agree it was wonderful being at that meeting.. what a beautiful bunch we have.. inside and out!!! I had so much fun and i'm really looking forward to the next time!! love yas! Darquise

What an amazing group you all are and I feel so blessed to have meet you all. Marcey PS So can't wait till the next time

I, too, had a wonderful time!! You guys are the greatest. I love hearing about everybody's experiences. It's pretty cool how we are all in different phases of our journey with different doctors, and how we can all help each other. I can't wait until next time either.....so we can close down another restaurant for the night!!! OK, all you other UPSTATE people need to make it next time. You don't know what you are missing!!!
