Don't forget about Shed and Share tonight

I'm in Chicago this week so I won't be there :(

Hopefully I'll be back to a normal schedule starting next month

Could you tell me more about * Shed and Share*?

I am from Greenville, Ohio and looking for some groups that meet in my area...My friend Marlene and I started our support group meeting called * little by little* a year ago...Our group has about 12 active each month...But I am looking for somewhere to go as well as our group to give me support between meeting times...If you can help, I would appreciate it...Thanks, Tammy

Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only TRUE FRIENDS will leave footprints in your heart...And may that friendship have such a ONENESS that when one weeps the other will taste salt...Friends are like balloons ; once you let them go you can't get them back....So I'm going to tie you to my heart so I never lose you.

Hi Tammy,

Shed and Share meets at Dr. Rita Anderson's office on the 2nd Thursday of every month from 7-8pm.  It's not driven by the office staff.. it's driven by post and pre ops.  It's very informal.  We do a meet and greet for 15 minutes and then it's totally free form.  we have a GREAT time (and I really miss it)

Hopefully in July I'll be free.  They normally do a pre-meeting dinner too at a restaurant near by (her office is in the Medical Arts Building of Kettering Hospital)

Hope that helps

Tony

Do you have to be a patient of Dr. Rita Anderson's in order to participate in the meetings?

Thanks for the information...Tammy

No, you do NOT have to ba one of Dr Rita's patients.  ANYONE is welcome regardless of what type of surgery you had, when you had it, or who the surgeon was!

gah I hate that these are the same night as my own surgeon's support group. I really want to come up for one someday.

I missed this month's meeting because, like Tony, I was traveling.

Did they do the protein tasting?

Nah, it was the same ol' sitting around talking thing. One girl who was wanting the DS said that Dr. Rita talked her into an RNY and I told her to stand up for what she wants if she really wants the DS. I doubt she listened to me. That annoying PA was pushing her book again and we noticed that some of her info in the book was incorrect.

Thanks for the info.  (Interesting that the book has incorrect stuff in it...  maybe because she is pretty new to all of this and relied heavily on the info she got from patients (who, in some cases, aren'y "fully informed")...?!?)

Guess next week I'll just bring the stuff I don't want and let people pick over it...
