Hi Lily;
You might want to come along to our Alphabet Soup support group. It meets on the third Tuesday of the month. Unfortunately I don't get there very often as I live 150K from Melbourne, although at the moment I am in the Northern part of Australia for 3 weeks

See The following Facebook page:
https://www.facebook.com/events/513710108794878/  (https://www.facebook.com/events/513710108794878/)
Alphabet Soup  is at:
Denn Bar Restaurant 113 High St Northcote 3070

I will probably
