Alan and I go to a support group of the Neuropathy Association in NYC once a month. The next meeting is on the 21st. A law firm graciously lets the group meet in the conference room. Imagine 15 or so (hopefully it will get more people) coming in (I bring my muffins) and there on this big beautiful black marble counter that surrounds the room, well, there's fresh fruit, fresh carafes of coffee, fresh teas, bottles of Spring Water, platters of cookies. Well, you just have to picture it.

Went to my first one last month. Everybody has a story, and we all help each other. Very nice people. It's run very strict though, no one can talk out of turn, you can't interrup anyone. But it's informative and you learn a whole bunch of stuff.

Hopefully you can find one in your area. Local churches and schools sometimes let you use a room (like they do in Alcoholics Anonymous).

See what happens.

Good Luck, Melody
