Hi every one.
We have had a few great meetings the last few months.
The meetings are going to be the 4th Tuesday of each month, from 1 to 3 pm, EXCEPT for the July meeting. It is moved to the Monday before, July 21 from 1 to 3 pm in the dining room at the Mollie Nye House. . We are changing this one meeting because Dr. Venter, a fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue specialist is coming to speak to the group. He is a new, young doctor who has specialized in this area.
Please join us for this meeting and any other that you can.
August meeting will focus on new information about chronic pain and how it affects out body, and how to take your pain story to your doctor.
See you all at the meetings
