Jackie, I'm so glad to hear of your positive experience with a support group. After Gary's stroke we learned of the support groups for many different diseases.

I'm kind of sad because my mother-in-law who had breast cancer about 35 years ago had no support group to go to. She wasn't even able to talk to anyone who had gone through the same surgery before or after she had hers.

Times sure have changed, and for the better in this respect. It really helps to talk to people who have gone through the same things.
