I am not at UMASS but do live in Billerica. I just finished my consultation day at Lahey this past week. I am looking to sign up for the 4 sessions prior to surgery (my surgery wont be until December, just because of time off at work). There is also offered a Support Group at Lahey - I am not sure where you are having surgery? Perhaps you can come to the support group. It is every month, the last Tuesday of the month. I have to look at my paperwork at home to see what time. Would love additional support as well. My husband is semi supportive (he doesnt like the idea of surgery b/c there is always a risk) and I dont have any family here (just my inlaws - who tend to be negative). I am going it alone mostly. I have my mom's support (via phone).
