“I really appreciated having the opportunity to attend an info session with my mother who had some questions and concerns about my upcoming surgery. I really noticed and valued the inclusive and non judgemental language used during the session which made obesity feel like a medical condition worth treating and not a personal failure… Thank you for running the session!”
