Thanks so much Bonnie! Yup, I will be there for sure on Wednesday.....even though I won't be allowed to eat my dinner in group!
You might be able too do that actually. After the group we had last week it looks like they are going to take it back to the table and discuss it again. Too many people are affected by it in a negative way and it is supposed to be a safe place for all of us. I hope they can come to some kind of resolution that works for everyone, we have come up with some silly idea's to show how we feel I'll tell you about them Wednesday.
Really? They don't allow us to eat dinner in group? That's weird - the first one I went to (and the only one so far), back in December, I'm pretty sure I brought something to eat and ate it there. Can't remember what it was - probably a babybel and applesauce at the time. I didn't know I was breaking the rules! I think I even asked the person I was sitting next to and was told it was okay before I opened it up - and I was sitting right near all the TWH staff too.
