The advantages of a face to face support group can be so helpful. I often think that a support group for the spouse or caregiver would be even MORE helpful for them. They suffer right along with the patient but they have NO outlet.

After having found this site, I haven't looked for a group. I don't want to sound mushy, but I love the combination of consolation and kick in the pants reality check I get here.

Does anyone know is there are any support groups in Minnesota that meet on a monthly basis? If not would anyone be interested in attending one if started?

Thank you!
