The support group is a great mix of women at different points in time since their initial diagnosis (newly diagnosed, recurrence, and long term survivors). It is a wonderful vehicle that helps survivors establish
contact with others in order to reduce anxiety, fear, and isolation. The group offers an opportunity to discuss concerns and possible misconceptions related to treatment in a safe, loving environment. The support group has become the missing link
for many - the glue that joins mind, body, and spirit. The special camaraderie that is shared helps survivors realize they are not alone in their battle against this disease. You can get information about new cancer treatments, receive encouragement
from others, be inspired by the personal stories, laugh, and cry in a safe environment. Meetings consist of informal sharing of information in a round table format with occasional speakers. To provide additional support, a chaplain is always present
at the meetings. Approximately 15-25 ladies attend the monthly meetings from different stages in their journeys.
