Does anybody know of any Band only Support Groups in NJ (Middlesex County)?  I do attend a monthly support group but would love to meet more Band members.

Tom has organized some band support groups in NJ and has also posted this ( above).  I hope it comes through.  How are you doing 2 years out.  I get my band 11/2.  He is great.  I would love to go but I'm from the Poconos in PA

I'll be banded next month. That group is much closer to me than the one where my surgery is being done. Anyone know for sure if this one is active?

Hi Jackie,
That sounds great. My name is Fran, not Frank... lol  I hope to make the November meeting and meet you too.
