Question:
Does anyone know of a support group in the Florence, AL area?

I had my surgery in Birmingham, AL and they have a wonderful support group, but the drive is 2 1/2 hours. I was wondering if anyone knew of a closer support group. Thanks! 2 weeks post-op and down 17lbs!    — Alicia K. (posted on February 11, 2003)

I go to a support group in Madison, AL. It's not that close to you, but closer than Birmingham. Email me at [email protected] and I'll be glad to give you details.

Hi Alicia. I live in Tuscumbia. [email protected] has just started a support group that meets in Sheffield. I was sick and didn't get to attend the first meeting, but will go to them after I have surgery next week. Her name is Theresa. I hope to see you at a meeting. Donna Hovater

I found a support group by going to local help, posted at top page, this site. That took me to a map which you chose your state that give local events/groups. I found one in Madison, Al. I also think there is one in Athens, Decatur, Prattville, and Birmingham. I hope that helps. Congratulations and wishing you a smooth journey on the losing side.
