Patient to Patient Network

The diagnosis of Pancreatic Cancer often leaves patients feeling frightened and feeling alone.  Feelings of helplessness and loneliness are normal, making it important for patients to understand that they are not alone.  We hope that our patient to patient support network will provide patients with the opportunity to connect with other patients, who have a similar diagnosis. This network will provide patients with the opportunity to connect on online, over the phone or at patient support groups.

Additionally, the first Tuesday of every month, patients, caregivers and professions in the medical field will be coming together to offer support to each other. Each group meeting will have a guest speaker, experienced in working with patients diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.
