Cancer
support group will meet Jan. 9
The
next meeting of the “Living with Cancer” Support Group will be
held on Thursday, January 9 from 7:00 to 8:15 pm. The meeting will
take place in the first floor administrative board room at Wayne
Health Care. (From the main entrance, turn right and go down the
hallway past the lab and turn left at the end of the hall. You will
see the board room on the left.)
The
group decided to meet one week later than usual due to New Year’s
Day.
January’s
meeting will hold an open forum and those planning to attend are
being asked to bring one thing to share with the rest of the group.
(Either copies for the group, or an idea that you want to share.
Perhaps
there is information that you have found to be helpful, or a concern
that you want to ask the group about, or something that you
experienced and how you dealt with it, etc.)
The
local Cancer Association of Darke County sponsors the Living with
Cancer group in cooperation with Wayne Hospital. The Support Group
is open to anyone with a cancer diagnosis, also family and friends of
an individual with cancer are encouraged to attend. Facilitating the
support group meeting will be Christine Lynn from the Cancer
Association and Jill Brown from Wayne Health Care.
