Support Group

I was invited to a support group meeting tonight.

In early March I had the pleasure of meeting two people ( from this group)
at a NMSS function. I gave them both my card ( as anybody would do who is
trying to promote a business ) LOL

I had posted on my business website my next speaking event for Tysabri.

The next thing I knew both had sent me an email that they were coming to
the event. Wow ! I was so excited. They indicated they would be bringing
other people with them. Now I was even more excited and I have to admit more
nervous.
I don't mind speaking in front of people but now I knew people in the audience. eeek !

At the event in early April I met up with them and noticed about 15 of them had come
there to hear little ol me speak. And thank you for not heckling me ( you know who I am referring to) LOL

I was truly touched. I recieved many invites to their support group meeting and I
thought to myself " am I ready for another support group?"
As many of you know I ws the co-faciliatator to the group here in town for a few years.
I recently ended my role as faciliatator for a variety of reasons.

I thought to myself as I was looking around the room that night. Nobody from the
support group I had put my heart and soul into and yet 15 or so people from a
neighboring support group all their to support me and hear about Tysabri.

That's when the lightbulb went on. I realized how much I needed a support group
that really supported me, with no strings attached.

I will not be able to attend tonight. Late Dr. appt., Mark is out of town, and it would just
be too rushed for me.

Thanks for the invite, support group, I will try to make it in June. i'm looking forward to
getting to know all of you better.
