looking for support groups

Hey everyone, hope someone can provide me with some information about  post-op support groups.

I am almost 7 years post-op and still attend support groups at least 2x a month. I am moving to Waynesboro, VA in a couple weeks and was hoping to find a group in the area. I figure it would probably be at UVA and I am not opposed to driving to Charlottesville to attend.

Any input, schedules, locations for me? Look forward to hearing from someone soon.

Thanks,
Bob

Hey Bob, Welcome to the Board :)
There is a group that meets in Charlottesville usually once a month at UVA...called the FFP's. The previous post by prissy is in reference to that group which has a meeting scheduled for July 24th. I think they have a picnic planned for August and that would be a great place to meet a few faces. I am only a hop skip and jump from Waynesboro so welcome to the neighborhood as well :)
