    Sorry, I am in Sacramento. But if you are just starting up the learning curve, feel free to write questions and let us respond in a general way. Then you can do a better specific search in your area. Best wishes! Joyce

    I am in Texas and know nothing about your area, sorry. However,I would suggest looking on the American Cancer Society website for a branch in your area, or call information and ask about it. Some hospitals that treat patients have support groups too, you might call or look on the hospital websites.

    Debbie,
    I'm in Georgia but we do have a great chatroom...it is down right now but many go on during the week. On Tuesday, there is a breast chat at 9PM in Chat 2. There is a good number that is 24/7 that might help 1-800-227-2345. It is the ACS number. I'll see what I can research to help you. What type cancer and if I could get some info to see what you are looking. I had a bilateral mastectomy March of 2007 and went through chemo and reconstruction. All of us can pull together to help you. We are a strong sisterhood. Angela

    I know this is late but I used JC & Mary Lewis Center in Savannah and then used the Georgia Institue for Plastic Surgery. I do know the plastic surgery center as a place hin Hilton Head not sure how close you are to there.

    Debbie you could try locating your local American Cancer Society or Relay for Life team. They should have a list of survivors in your community and probably know who are breast cancer survivors.
