Hi Lynne ,
My name is Natalie > most call me Tink . I have been a member here for almost 6 years and am post op almost 6 years .
I live in Manassas . So I am not to far away from you .
I am a support group leader, however I am finding it hard to get a group together as the meeting places around here most have some historical background and they want an arm and a leg to rent once a month . But we do a dinner once a month .
We would love to have you come and join us .
With the holiday season coming around , it is going to be hard for us to meet for dinner . I am proposing soon to do a brunch on some Saturdays .

We would love for you to share your journey . There are so many knowledgeable people around here . This board is full of so many different journeys .

As you seen there is some drama .. but not much .. and things do get worked through and we move on . We do at times disagree .. but I think we all can agree to disagree at times and come out like adults .

So glad you came out of lurkedom .. and I look forward to many more post from you .

Thanks Tink and others.  I will definitely check in on this forum more often.  I really do find that it helps to hear what others have had to deal with, what works and what doesn't, share recipes, etc. 
I had seen that you were meeting for dinner in Centreville recently but had a conflict.  I will try to join you the next time.  Looking forward to getting to know you all!

Good Sunday Morning & welcome!!!  Glad to see a new face!  Welcome to the board.  Although I live in Remington (Fauquier), I work in Manassas so I am not too far from you!  Thanks for sharing your journey with us and I hope we get to see a lot more of you.
