Supporting Member (50+ posts) Joined: Feb 2010 Posts: 79 | I've been to a couple of the HNC Support Groups here that are sponsored by SPOHNC. Mostly because the woman that is the facilitator of the meetings is absolutely wonderful. She, through Porter's Cancer Center, provides free one on one counseling to head and neck cancer patients.
At the meetings I went to, I gave everyone one of the OCF bracelets, gave them information about this wonderful website and about the 1st Colorado Oral Cancer Walk!
