| Hi lmh011-- The age depends on the group that is there. We have a few people that are in their mid-to upper 20s, I am 35, and the age goes I guess around upper 50's early 60s. Honeslty I haven't paid much attention to age. All I can say is I think all the people in the group are a great bunch of people. And I can also add, no one is there to judge anyone, only support. Please drop by and find out for yourself. I can promise great conversation, support, and laughter. Your welcome to PM me if you have further concerns. Melissa Lea Melissa Lea

The 25th is awesome! I'll be almost one week post-op and by then I'm sure I'll need lots of support!

| Lizrbit --I'm afraid I won't be heading to Galveston anytime soon. I'm sure there are other Galveston bandsters out there. Start a new thread and look for All Galveston Bandsters. Best wishes with you and your journey. Melissa Lea
