Hey with all the support being offered for those who are being faced with regain (which is great btw)... why not be proactive with those that are at goal or close to it!!!  I have a local group here in Houston called the "Main"stayers.  It is for those of us at goal (or close to it) and or at least a year post op.  It is not meant to be exclusive, however I have found most support groups tend to gravitate towards topics that are more for preops and those who have just had surgery.  Those of us who are further out have different needs.  I have a private group here on OH but really have not done much with it.  If there is interest out there from those of you that would like to be a part of it I would love to utilize it for those who may not be able to attend our group (and for those who can).  So if you don't meet the requirements for the regain group... and you are looking for some additional support to keep you on track send me a friend request, and either post here or send me a pm that you would like to join!

Requirements: (very simple)
1. At goal or close to it (you determine that not me) or if you are not at goal then you are at least a year post op.
2. Be active in the group
3.  No limitations on the number of members allowed to join.
4.  For members of the TBM... not for OH in general.  I want people to feel comfortable sharing.

My feelings won't be hurt if there are no takers... just wanted to put this out there in case anyone might be interested!!!

Thanks for friending me and including me!! Now what! I am a technotard!! Will I be notified some way when postings are made and if I wish to post something how do I do it!! In the 80's when I was in college and computers were starting to be really used by every day people for writing papers and such I figured it was a passing fad that would never fly!! Boy was I wrong!! So just let me know how to do what I need to!!

Thanks for making me feel special tonight!!

I bookmark my groups so they are easy to get to.  When you go to the group on the righthand side you will see a sidebar and you will click on discussions.  And there you can see the posts.

I think you will only get notifications on threads that you started... similar to the regular forums at OH.

So happy to have you all!!!
