Meetings/support groups??

Hello, I've been checking for the upcoming support groups & meetings, but nothing is listed yet.  I have never attended one up in the cities, but would like to if it doesn't conflict with my work schedule.  Does anyone know when & what days & where they are usually held?  Thanks, Kristy

Here's a link to information on the Park Nicollet groups:

Interesting, the site indicates there are still band meetings on the 1st Wednesday, and back-on-track meetings (1+ year post-op) on the 3rd Wednesdays... Didn't they discontinue those & go with just the 2nd & 4th Wednesdays??

Darla,

When do you go? I'm looking for a support group to go to and you guys always talk so highly about yours......

Kelly - does Dr. Glass in St. Cloud have one? That's probably a LOT closer for you. Otherwise, your own surgeon's office has incredible classes, too. Are you active on their messageboard?

Amy,

My Unity support group shut down in St. Cloud recently, I hadn't been going to it though because I was very disappointed in it......I'm not active on their message board either, I'm not impressed with it.....

I hear Darla & those guys talk about how much they like there support group so thought I'd check it out.......I don't mind the drive......

I haven't heard much on the Dr. Glass support group........

Kelly,

Dr. Glass in St. Cloud has support groups at the St. Cloud hospital.  Here is the info.  There is one on Monday night.  I am planning on going, as long as the weather is good.  They start at 5:15 and done at 6:30.  They are in the conference rooms.  Here is teh newsletter with all the info.  Any questions let me know!

Nope!  There are still meetings the first four Wednesdays.  When there's a fifth Wednesday, there isn't a meeting. 

 I would like to go but I don't know where the bank building is.  (I work at the SLP campus!  But I don't know where that building is.)  Can you help?
Thanks,
Kristen
