Hi Chris,
According to the list of UOAA affiliated Support Groups, there is a group in Cape Cod. Check out this link and look at Massachusetts.

Hope this helps.

Hi Mary,

I'm interested too. I went to the last meeting and no one was there. I do have a contact # I'll try calling. I'll post what I find out.

I just tried calling the Cape Cod contact and got a machine. I'll try again tomorrow.

As far as any other groups, I've head there's a group in New Bedford but I don't have info on them.

I'll keep looking.

I know this is an old thread, but wondering if there is an ostomy group on or near the Cape. I tried going to one in Boston this past December. But after missing an exit, and going through a tunnel twice while in traffic, I missed the meeting. If anyone is interested in meeting once in a while on the Cape, I'm in.
