She has three offices. One on Buenos Aires, one in Southern Trace and one on the other side of 27/441.

And, may I put in a word for The Villages Airheads, a support group for those with COPD and other breathing-associated challenges? I serve as VP.

"Educational" sessions, with occasional visits by physicians, therapists, etc. are held on the second and fourth Tuesday, 10:00 - 12:00, Old Glory Room, Mulberry Regional Recreation Center. Tuesday 8/23 will be the group's 10th anniversary celebration.

Breathing and Exercise sessions (no, we don't usually break a sweat, but learn how to cope with our COPD) on the First and Third Thursday, same times, same place.

Hope to see you there.

I have heard of the Airheads, but did not know much about them. Thanks so much for your post giving some information about the group. It would probably be wise if I were to start attending your meetings. Believe it would be time very well spent. Thanks again,
