Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore Maryland will be hosting a Head and Neck Cancer Patient Education Day on April 21, 2007 - 8:30 a.m. -4:00 p.m. Free lunch and parking provided. It will be held at the Weinburg Building at the hospital. Please go to www.hopkinskimmelcancercenter.org for more details. You can register by calling 443-287-2541. I attended last year's education day right after my husband had been diagnosed and I learned so much, met so many people and professionals. The top doctors, nurses, speech therapists speak and takes questions from the attendees. It is a day well worth attending if you can.
