Hi Paul! Unfortunately they ended a few months back :frowning: But there is a Facebook AAGB page that we have if you’re interested.

I’m very glad that there is attention being called to this specific situation. My partner didn’t really drink til years passed after her surgery and the knowledge of the probability of addiction wasn’t widespread yet so when she started drinking, she didnt stand a chance and the addiction progressed rapidly.

It hits very close to home and is heartbreaking.
I’m happy that it’s getting more and more recognition as the time progresses.

I am clean and sober now, but always something to keep in mind as I have gastric sleeve surgery next week.

It’s something many of us have dealt with. I found this article when I finally stopped and it was a huge realization. When you read the comments afterwards, it’s just heartbreaking. There are many of us who never knew when we had gbs.

Hi Kimberlym :slight_smile: Our gal that ran the AA meeting had to stop for family reasons :pensive: We tried to keep it going for a while but it eventually stopped altogether. I’m sorry. But regular AA meetings could be of benefit as well.

Hi :wave: no they had ended a bit ago. Our AA host had some family issues. It was unfortunate because we had so many similar struggles.
