Hey what do you all think about putting together a virtual support group? I have seen several comments over the last few months of there not being a therapist in the area that can help with WLS support and no support group. What if we put together a virtual support group that meets once or twice a month via Skype or some other virtual voice chat type of group thing.

We can work out the details once I gather some feedback, so let me know what you think.

I'd be in, too. (Have an excellent support group at the surgeon's office, but it's only held once a month and I need a little more than that.)

I would definitely be interested!!!!!

BTW, Google Hangouts (similar to Skype but premium quality and options are still free) will allow multiple people to hangout together. Just need Google Plus and maybe a gmail ID (which are also free).
