Posted by Diane, a resident of the Alamo neighborhood, on Aug 22, 2012 at 8:42 am Thank you for this information!
Does anyone know of a support group for the spouses/families and close friends (often primary caregivers) of those stricken with cancer?

Posted by Julia, a resident of the Alamo neighborhood, on Aug 22, 2012 at 11:00 am Dear Diana, you sound like a person that is experiencing this awful situation.
Yes....there are many support groups. First check with medical center treating a family member or friend. They will give you a list of support groups that specifically handle care-givers and/or family members.
