Ostomy Support Group of Lawton-Fort Sill (OK)(formerly Lawton-Fort Sill Ostomy Association) |
| The Ostomy Support Group of Lawton-Fort Sill (OK) meets on the third Tuesday of each month except July and August although we are still available to answer phone calls and visit with patients all through the year. Meetings begin at 4pm and generally last for one hour. All persons with an ostomy (or anticipating ostomy surgery), regardless of age, their family members and friends are welcome. Come join us, won't you?
Don't forget, our next meeting is on March 2009. Our Guest Speaker this month will be Mr. Randall Boord, Hollister representative. Mr. Boord will show the latest ostomy products produced by Hollister and most likely will have some samples for us to try. Please put this date on your calendar now and plan to attend. You don't want to miss seeing and hearing this information. See you there! |
