  • Hampton Roads, Va--support Group.

    Hi all!

    Recently a few of us here in the HR area of VA were discussing trying to start a small support group. One of the local members has even offered her backyard as a possible meeting spot so having a place to meet, atleast for the time being, wouldnt be an issue. its just a matter of finding a time that suits everyone's schedule.

    So, if anyone in HR, or surrounding areas for that matter, is interested, please dont hesitate to post and share your thoughts on this idea.

    Hi!

    I do have a perfect spread for a get together.....cookout/potluck. I have a pool in the backyard, jacuzzi..and seating for over to 15. I can have my husband grill us some hamburgers and if you have children that you don't have daycare for, they could swim in my pool while we chat about our bladders and such!

    Let me know, my house is out near the Courthouse in a subdivision called Highgate Greens. It would be fun to spend a beautiful Spring day outside or inside (weather permitting)

    I should also say I have 3 bathrooms!

    love to all,
    Kara Isabel

      Kara,

      You're very generous to offer your home as a meeting place!

      Hopefully we can all get our schedules synched very soon!

      Looking forward to meeting everyone!

        Count me in! I'm new to this whole IC thing and the diet can be very frustrating, esp. since we don't seem to have a one stop shop for all our special dietary needs.

        I'm in Chesapeake.

          Great!

          I sent a few Private Messages to a few that live in the area, so hopefully I'll hear back!

          If you know of anyone else, let them know!

              This sounds so wonderful! I can't believe I'm excited to talk to others about my "going problem" who will actually "get it".

                How does the weekend of April 28th sound to everyone? The 28th is a Saturday or we could do a Sunday afternoon (29th).

                What day is better for you all? Saturday or Sunday?

                hugs,

                  Hi Kara....

                  While I have a flexible schedule and could do either day, Sunday's tend to be more accessible for me.

                  Next................................
