It's the last Wednesday of the month, people, and that means it's support group time! Tomorrow's meeting is at 7:00 p.m. at the Florham Park offices of Drs. Abkin & Bertha.

Hope to see you there!!

Hi I am getting banded on January 14th. How can I find out of support group times so that I can join them.

What's "Dr. Bertha's Take 2 Project" ???

Nancy, that's just Doug's nickname for himself. Dr. Bertha is giving him a second shot at life as a thinner person, hence "Take Two"!

i don't know which doctor you went to, but, bertha and abkin are usually the last wed of the month, you could always call the office where you go, and check the board here... i think there is a section for support groups... best wishes with the band... it was a great thing for me.... ro

Hey Bertha/Abkin groupies!!

Next Wednesday is almost upon us so I wanted to remind everyone of the support group meeting at 7:00 in the doctors' offices.

If anyone is interested, I have a winter coat that needs a new home. It's a really nice women's coat, hip-length, in a generous size 2X and in very good shape. Navy blue with a faux-fur ruff and plaid lining. And warm!

Someone with long arms would love it. I'm really tall and it fit me very well for a while. If anyone wants it just post here and I'll bring it to the meeting next week.

Just wanted to bump this to remind New Jerseyans and neighbors that the Abkin/Bertha support group is meeting again on Wednesday the 23rd at 7:00 p.m. At the last meeting I asked if patients of other doctors were welcome and the answer was a resounding YES. So even if you're not an Abkin/Bertha patient and you want to come, contact me directly and I'll give you the address.

Hope to see you there!

Bumping this again to remind folks of the banding support group meeting on Wednesday the 30th of March at 7:00 p.m. in Florham Park. PM me if you're interested in directions. Hope everyone's enjoying the weather!
