Gary, I have a patient I'm working with right now. She's just getting ready to go into treatment. I have a friend who has worked with over 900 patients. She's a breast cancer survivor. I'm looking for more and with her help, will probably find more. I had no clue about this stuff when DX'd and couldn't find anything other than seriously dismal news regarding it on the internet. How I missed this site is beyond me. I even started a message board of my own to meet other OC people. It was when I shut it down that one of the guys found this place and directed me here. I only had about 50 members with only about 8 doing much talking. It would have been good to be able to come here and find things out. I was lost and now I'm not. I will share this site with the others. Thanks for doing this.

Brenda, I live just north of Seattle. The only sessions I have found to attend are for any cancer people. I'm starting one next month for Stage 4 cancer survivors. I'll see how that goes. Thank you so much but I think Bremerton might be a bit of a drive for me. Carol
