Bellingham support??

Does anyone know of any support groups in the Northwest part of the state. I am up here in Bellingham and looking for something within a 45 minute drive... Have my surgery date! YEA! Luck 7/7 Kathleen

Yes there is a support group in Bellingham. I, personally, wouldn't recommend it. But that is my opinion. We are currently trying to get a new group together. I have 8 people interested. We still need to get together to figure out where and when we would have meetings. I have been so busy with the school year ending that I just haven't had time for anything. Those of you who are interested, lets throw in some ideas to see what we can come up with. Vanessa suggested getting together for dinner or something to discuss how we want to proceed. I think this would be a great idea. Lori

I would be interested in meeting with you. Why would you not suggest the current support group? Let me know the details. Thanks. Kathleen
