Do others here have suggestions for good ones to which they belong? An article in yesterday's Wall Street Journal, speaks to how some support groups are developing on social networking sites, but are keeping their membership closed: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB20001424052970204261704574272041309290568.html Take care and hope, - Ed "My years as a medical practitioner, as well as my own first-hand experience, have taught me how important self-help groups are in assisting their members in dealing with problems, stress, hardship and pain... the benefits of mutual aid are experienced by millions of people who turn to others with a similar problem to attempt to deal with their isolation, powerlessness, alienation, and the awful feeling that nobody understands." - former U.S. Surgeon General C. Everett Koop, MD, Thanks for any feedback Dear Joy,
