CancerCare provides FREE telephone conferences on various topics realted to all kinds of cancers. They are a toll free dial up service where you can listen to live, current experts discuss various cancer issues, treatments etc. About 3 times a year they have something related to head and neck and oral cancers. One of these is comming up. OCF has just developed a relationship with CancerCare (though you will not see us on the release as one of the sponsors of this event, but will in the future) and we are going to be working with them to spread the word about those topic dates that relate to our areas of interest. I urge all of you to sign up for this telephone conference. It is on July 19th at 1:30 EST. Two of my favorite people, Dr. Terry Day who runs the Yul Brenner organization that we work with in April each year to do freee public screenings, and Dr. Merrill Kies from MDACC to whom I refer tons of patients each year, are on the program.

In the future you will see the dates, times, and sign on information for ones related to our disease or other areas of interest like forward looking discussions of research etc. posted here by me, and I think that you will find them valuable and informative. Cancer Care is a great organization and it is a really good partnership that fits with OCF in many ways. I hope many of you will listen in. Make sure that when you do the online sign up that you put in the comment block that you are OCF members.
