Angry

[rjtexas]

Nani,

In October I was diagnosed with Acoustic Neuroma. I can relate to the fear, anger, and alienation that you are going through. In early November a friend of mine sent me an e-mail about a meeting in Houston, Texas. It turned out that this meeting was a support group and they had brought in a specialist from MD Anderson to discuss treatment options and to answer questions. I decided to take a two hour road trip from Austin (where I live) to Houston and was pleasantly surprised to find out how therapeutic attending the group was. I am not sure if you have had any success in finding a AN support group; however I know that this one was helpful for me. It would be about a 3 1/2- 4 hour drive from Baton Rouge to Houston. If you are interested, here is contact information for the group:

Visit www.yahoo.com and search groups for

If you would like a direct contact for the group, write me back and I can give you more information.


Hang in there.

Best regards,
Robert Johnson

Greetings Robert!
I lived in Austin when I was diagnosed with my AN - that was a LONG time ago (even though I was only 25 then!) - I went to Houston to have surgery!  Glad you found this site - make yourself at home!
