| Family & Friends Section This section is for partners, friends and families of WLS patients. We understand that you have concerns and questions about WLS too, so this area has been created specifically to enable you to voice your concerns and to make friends with others who have not had surgery themselves but are supporting someone who is. You are free to use and browse the other forums, but this is somewhere that is dedicated to you. |

It's great to have a friend like yours. Me and my bestie don't see one and other very often now, life gets in the way, but when we do the conversation takes off from the last time and I know that if I needed her she would be at my side in an instant as I would her.
