Hi! I'd love to invite you to our Support Group Meeting. Our group is called F.A.C.E.S. of WLS. We have wonderful, kind members who really invest alot of time in each other. We meet on the 3rd Saturday of each month at Medical Center East at 3:00 and the last Monday of each month at 6:00. We meet at Medical Center East on the 2nd Floor in Classroom 1. We have special events and speakers at our Saturday meetings and our weeknight meetings are a "just visiting" type format. Both are really enjoyable and we'd just love to have you. Feel free to bring family, friends or interested parties. If you have any questions feel free to call me at 205-838-6589 in Birmingham.
