Edinburgh

Is there anyone in or around Edinburgh who would like to meet up?  When I was diagnosed in October, I asked at the Western General whether there was a patient group of any kind, and was told that there was not.  It's fine talking to the staff there, but I would appreciate being able to talk to others who are actually going through the same as me.  Of course this website is wonderful, too - but it's not quite the same as face-to-face!

I'm based in Edinburgh and happy to meet up. How about at Maggie's at WGH? When are you next there? I work on site so can make time most days. Sarah

Hi Olivia, I do hope you can get a group going... it is so important to be able to talk to others who are in the same situation. I am sure there are other members who are based in Edinburgh - 

Best...

Yes I would like to meet up, and as it happens I am going to WGH next Tuesday - it'll be 6 months - at 11.00.  Shall I come to Maggies after that, say 11.45 - 12.00?  How shall I recognise you?  I'm (well) over 60, will probably be wearing a purple jacket, greyish hair, puffy Glivec eyes!

Fine for Tuesday. 12 prob. best for me. Sure we'll recognise each other with those puffy eyes...!

12 it is, then.  I look forward to meeting you.
