Local Houston Support Group

March 25, 2005

Amy,

You wrote, " My mother was recently diagnosed with pancreatitis and is doing

her best to learn how to adjust to a new lifestyle. I am hoping to find a

support group in the Houston,

TX area. "

I am sorry to hear that your mother has developed pancreatitis. We have

several members who live in the Houston area. Please tell me a little more

about

her story so I can better connect her with local support.

You will find that this disease is very debilitating and making it to face

to face meetings can be extremely difficult. There are occasionally such

meetings, though most do better by the message board or by a telephone support

group.

I am sure we can find some form of support that will meet her needs.

Becky,

Would you be so kind as to furnish us with the names, addresses,

telephone numbers and specialties of these doctors? We would like to

be able to add this information to our doctor database files.

Thanks!

With love, hope and prayers,
