Kim-
I am also in State College. My dad was diagnosed with a very aggressive form of PC over 6 years ago and went through a wide range of treatments in the Pittsburgh Area. He passed away this April. I’ve been through just about every loop of the roller-coaster you’ll be facing. I’d be open to trading emails if that would help.
All the best to you.

We’re in State College, not too far from you. There is no women’s support group here, but my husband was diagnosed a year ago, researched until April then was treated May-July. He is fine now. I’d be happy to talk to you and share what I’ve learned in a most amazing year. Call me at 814-237-0979.

In surfing the web I found your Organiztion! We are two years post surgery,cancer free, but still struggling with the psychosocial issues. We’ve attended several support groups in our area for couples but have found them minimaly helpful. I am curious to find out if there is a chapter of your organiztion in Charlotte,NC?

Looking for a support group in the Hershey/Harrisburg area of Pennsylvania. My Father was just diagnosed and I am having a very hard time accepting it. I am an only child and I am trying to be strong for both my parents and my son and have no one to be strong for me. Would be most helpful to find a group to vent to and relate with. Thanks so very much.
