desperate need of support for a friend

i am trying to find someone who is in the chicago area who has throat/lung cancer to speak with a friend of mine's sister.


her dr gave her the number of only one other male patient and i am trying to find her a female african american woman, dx with throat/lung cancer.


i don't really know all of the details but know that she is in dire need of someone to speak to her. her name is linda, she is 52 yrs old and was a school teacher.


i do know that she really needs someone who understands what she is/has gone through to share with. they have pretty much given her 3 months.


any help would be greatly appreciated. linda does not have access to a computer so i am trying to find someone that would be willing to give me their phone number.


thanks,

karol
