Cancer patients, cancer survivors, their families and friends are invited to the next meeting of the Cancer Support Group at Sacred Heart Hospital in Pensacola. The meeting will be held Tuesday, Jan. 8, from 2 to 3 p.m. in the main hospital’s Oncology Unit Library on the second floor. Valet parking is available at the hospital’s main entrance on Ninth Avenue.
The group will view the first segment of a DVD of the movie “The Secret,” which will be followed by a discussion of the segment. The movie illustrates how to create a joyful life and that this “secret” has been used by successful people through centuries to gain strength and discover joy and peace when faced with any challenges in their lives.
The support group meets on the second Tuesday of each month at 2 p.m. in the same location. Upcoming topics to be addressed also include tips on handling the side effects of chemotherapy; Advance Directives; disability; and other topics of interest to patients and their families.
The group is designed to offer support through education, information, spirituality, and the comfort of fellowship with other cancer patients. For more information, please contact Rene Moses, (850) 416-7593, or Jo Jensen, (850) 416-7928.Labels: cancer support group
