Breast Cancer Support Group/Networking
A support group can be extremely beneficial to anyone who is a survivor of breast cancer or for anyone who is diagnosed with breast cancer.
Support groups are also helpful to a breast cancer survivor's family members as well.
"My wife had breast cancer. The Rose support group meetings saved the sanity of both of us. The women and their families are totally traumatized by the verdict of 'breast cancer': We shall always be grateful to The Rose"
