Other Cancer Chats

After doing a search for other cancer chats I found several that had been abandoned. The random user would post a message that would hang ignored in cyber space. I'm hoping www.cancercafe.org will bring these floating people together, to allow them a space where they can chat about their cancer experiences, to hear of other positive experiences, to laugh and fight together.

Coping Tips for Caregivers

Great article on CNN for caregivers. This specifies for those caring for someone with COPD but its really true for all caregivers.

Too many times caregivers run themselves into the ground and are then unable to care for their loved ones in the ways in which they need.

Remember to make some you time, it will help everyone in the long run!

Welcome to Cancer Cafe

Cancer Cafe is a place for adults to meet with others whose lives have been touched by cancer. We chat about anything and everything, once in a while we even talk about cancer! If you’re looking for a group of people willing to look cancer in the eye and laugh, you’re in the right place. Pity parties are timed and the depths of despair are closed indefinitely for renovations. Those seeking doom and gloom need not apply! We believe that a positive attitude is everything in this battle. Cancer may not be funny but laughter is the best medicine!
