Since the comment about literature in treatment facilities came up.

We have posted here many times asking for people, when making a trip to their treatment centers, to hand carry post cards we have with info on the back about how to find the forum for support and leave them with the check desk in radiation and in particular with the social services staff. Jamie@oralcancerfoundation.org will send them to anyone who offers to help, and sends them in lots of hundred or more.

If we just mail them to an unknown person in the H&N department, they likely end up in the mail room round file. So here is the ask again. Help those behind you to find us. email Jamie. She'll send a freebee along with your request most of the time�..

Some like Malka even after the end of treatments, have turned this into an every quarter go back to her facility pilgrimage, and it has made a difference. Little effort - HUGE impact on another person.
