Question to those who have this type of group in hospitals:

1. Who are invited to attend - are there age limitations?
2. Do you charge for these groups?
3. Who runs them?
4. Is there a subject to be discussed at each meeting (a la LLL) or do you just
answer questions?

Am about ready to start one as we have a monthly LLL meeting at our hospital,
but I think my endless telephone calls may be reduced by running a weekly group.
Is that realistic or not?
Today I had three moms in my office (a very small room) as one had an
appointment and the others were walk/cry-ins.  In fact, they helped each other
just by seeing another woman who was in the same boat - sleep deprived and
terrified.
Any input would be appreciated.
