The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society Family Support Group gives patients and their families a place to go where they can share information, education and feelings in a comfortable and caring environment.
Family Support Groups are for anyone affected by blood cancer and are free. There are currently 130 local groups, with the number of groups growing each year. Groups generally meet once a month. A credentialed healthcare professional who has extensive oncology and group work experience facilitates all Family Support Groups. They are prepared to handle sensitive issues such as loss, guilt, treatment questions and family stressors.
The groups are not a replacement for psychotherapy. They're designed to provide mutual support and education to members who may feel a little less alone by meeting with others whose situations are similar to their own. Family Support Groups can be looked at as a coping tool, in conjunction with your or a loved one's medical treatment.
