Hi Paula
Am so pleased to hear your went and found it helpful - it's certainly good to meet others too in the same boat (or should I say 'mask') isn't it?
Am glad you told Lisa about us too so that others can benefit from the regular support on here and find out about the comfort accessories when they need them. Can you do everyone a favour please? When you find out about the next date and so on, could you update this post, in case I don't hear of it please? I try my best to alert people of these support group meetings around the country when I hear of them.
