janie 3 Posted June 12, 2011 Hello to all, I'm looking for sleevers in Chicago southland. Would like to get a small support group together. I had my surgery in the north suburbs. The support groups that they have are all on Saturdays. I work alot of saturdays. So it makes it difficult to make it to many meetings. I'm hoping to find some sleevers that live near me. This will make it easier to make regular meetings. It may also be fun to find others to workout with. If you are in the area and would like to form a support group, please let me know. Thanks Jane Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
