Hello to everyone, especially my favorite babe - Rhonda!! Rhonda, I finally have a minute to breath so I thought I'd check out the link you sent. Thank you for that. Talk to you all soon, Richelle

Hi Everyone, I haven't been to this website for months, so sorry for not responding earlier. I would definitely be interested (ecstatic actually) to meet some local bandsters! - Where in Alberta are you located? Okotoks - What sort of functions would you expect from the support group (specify all that apply): a. informal sharing of experiences and information yes b. organized workshops perhaps c. group counselling not so much d. retreats perhaps e. events, please describe perhaps - maybe an exercise weekend away f. other, please specify walks, exercise buddies, e-mail buddies, etc - If the support group is facilitated in your city/town, how frequently would you like the group meet - monthly, every other month, quarterly? monthly or weekly would be a good start - If the support group is facilitated in a city/town other than yours (say within 100 to 400 km), would you still be interested in attending some of the gatherings or organized activities? perhaps (Calgary meetings would definitely work for me) - Would you be opened to rotational gatherings at members' houses (which means that we rotationally host a gathering at our homes)? sure - Would you be opened to gathering at a public place (like a restaurant)? sure - Would you be opened to gathering at a functional meeting site such as a pre-booked meeting room in a school, hotel, etc.? sounds so formal (and more expensive), but maybe - Are there suggestions or information that you would like to share? I had my surgery in Mexico, so if anyone out there would like more info just let me know. Hopefully more people get on this "band"wagon soon!! PS. I've learned that I have a hole in my band somewhere. Has anyone out there gone through surgery to repair their band? Thanks, BlueShadow (Richelle)
