Anyone living in South Florida?

Hi everyone!

I've been a member of VST for a few days now and i can't seem to find very many people from South Florida that have sleeved or are in the process. I would LOVE to meet people and make some friends through this avenue as i feel like i will need every bit of support i can get once i'm sleeved. I think it would be very nice to be able to meet up and help one another out post-sleeve. Hope there are many of you out there as I would love to hear from all of you! :) :D

How is everyone doing post op? We should all meet up for coffee one day! I am not getting much out of my support group.

When is your surgery?

I don't know about other meetings but the one I went to was so structured and had veterans, newly sleeved and preop all mixed together. I didn't get anything out of it.

Good luck...

Would you mind sharing who is your doctor and why you picked him ?

I'm just starting my research, and am lost a bit :)
