I am thinking about starting up a support group in the southern New Jersey area. If you live in New Jersey and are interested in partaking in this let me know. I was thinking about meeting once a month maybe at a local church or library. Places like this are usually ok with this. I just wanted to get some feedback from people that live in the area to see if this is something that people would like to attend. I don't know about everyone else but it helps to have people to talk to that are going through this.

Again, if you live in or around the New Jersey area and this sounds like something you would like to do then I will pursue it and try to secure a meeting place.

Hi Larry. On good days I think of doing the same thing.

I live too far to join your group, but wanted to wish you luck in doing so.

Let me know how it turns out. I still think I might try this in my area (Sussex County).

Good luck.

Thanks for the support. Just so people know if you live in New Jersey I am around exit 4 on the NJ Turnpike so it would be around that area.

Yes, bettyg I checked and at least 3/4 of those support groups are either closed or no one responds when you use their contact information. Someone should verify that these groups still exist but thank you.

I live in Marlton, NJ which is very close to Sicklerville and Egg Harbor. I used to work at the FAA Tech Center in Egg Harbor.

In any event I am reaching out to various online support groups to see if there is enough interest. I will do this for a couple of more weeks. So far I've seen about 10 people so far that are interested.
