Hi there I was just wondering if anyone else out here is a Yooper. I live in Gladstone and know lots of other survivors but not sure if any are on this site.

    Thanks wish I knew about you but you dont count as you dont actually live here and I knew about the michigan thread but most of those girls are in the lower section of the LP so not a chance of meeting up as I cant travel right now. lol

    Very quiet, but enjoyable. :)

    I don't remember more than one person (may have been you :) posting from the U.P.  Hope you find more that are closer by, although meeting up with someone from the U.P is most likely a very long drive anyway :O

    Where is Gladstone btw?

    Hi Sdavis and wishiwere...

    I am a yooper from Hancock but currently live in lower Mi... in Commerce Twp.  Have you found others from your area?  I am new to this site and am looking for support in my area, or any part of Michigan really.  I had my biopsy in March, partial mastectomy April 13th, port a cath insertion a week ago Friday and a D&C Friday of this week.  That was the worst of all my surgeries.  Necessary tho as I have been anemic from my heavy periods. I meet with my oncologist again this week to begin chemo soon.

    Be well. We'll get thru this together!  hugs, Lori

    Not a Yooper, but popping in to say hi.

    I know there used to be at least one Yooper that posted on the Michigan Get Togethers thread, but can't remember who it was. sigh.

    I'm not a Yooper, but I have friends who live up there and we visit annually.  When I am done chemo, I am planning to go up there mid-August.  We normally only go in the Fall, but I wanted to get up there earlier this year and enjoy nicer weather.

    I love that part of the world!  We are visiting St. Ignace and Mackinac Island. :-)
