We were at our SPOHNC (Support for People with Head and Neck Cancer) monthly support group meeting last night in Baltimore (Johns Hopkins) and one of the members has an acquaintance that lives in Switzerland and is a head and neck cancer patient. They are looking for help on the internet, like this forum, but does not speak or read English. Any suggestions?

I would suggest the Swis person use this website with the assistance of someone that can speak and interpret English for this person. I do alot of international business and I have yet to come across any area where someone does not know English.
