    There is a similar group to this on ‘smart patients’ that organise a twice weekly zoom call.

    Would that be of interest?

    I attend an in person support group for caregivers at the cancer center where my husband gets all his care. The availability of this group was brought to my attention by our social work team there. Do you have a nurse navigator where he's getting treatment? They are a wonderful source of support and may know of additional resources available, a group or other outlet for your concerns and undoubtedly fear at what you are dealing with. Please PM me if you would like to chat more. Can you provide more info on you husband's diagnosis? What is the treatment plan for him?
    All the best, Lynn
