Trying To Start A Local Support Group In Metrowest, Ma


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I'm trying with the support of my cardio get a monthly support group started. I'm trying to see what space is available at the NewtonWellesley Hospital. They are getting back in touch with me. I don't know how much interest there is so I'm asking if there would be anyone interested here to come to a group. If no space is available right away. I thought that there is a park with a pond near me and maybe interested people could plan to meet there as they have picnic tables in the shade, it's free. ; )

If anyone is interested you could let me know. Maybe it would start some where out of the hospital and when it grows move into the hospital. I used to run support groups for the American diabetes Association. I would really love to meet others and get some extra support in person.

I hope this will work out in MetroWest, Ma.

Hi BellaMia,

We used to have a local support group here for about 3 years.

Maybe try checking with your local library, or church. Some churches have small halls, or basements that are used for wedding/baby showers and other events----------------why not a support group meeting.... :)

See if you can find someone to run the group with you, as it can be exhausting to do by yourself. Maybe someone who is supportive, but doesn't have dysautonomia, so they can take over on days your feeling bad.

Your such a kind and thoughtful person!

You're so kind Maxine thank you. I know I can get the space I just want to get started ASAP if anyone is wanting too. It's just a matter of when the room is available and other people have shown interest.

I'm starting to meet a lot of nice people in the are from the meet others program and also I didn't know who else might be interested and of course there would have to be some kind of team work when I would be out. : )

My doctor is trying to see who might be interested in his practice. If it is meant to be it will happen... :)

Well maybe we could do a SKYPE VIDEO CHAT GROUP EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE FROM OUR BEDS?
