Sharp HealthCare offers free support for women with breast cancer. At this bimonthly meeting, women can share their concerns and experiences of living with breast cancer and exchange ideas to discover new coping strategies in a friendly, informational atmosphere.
The support group is open to women in all stages of breast cancer — from recent diagnosis to treatment to cancer survivor — but is not meant for those with metastatic disease.
Registration is required prior to attending.
