Review for Melanoma International Foundation, Glenmoore, PA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

This is the place to go if you need to know the latest about Melanoma. The feed back, support is wonderful and if the answers to your question is not known, Catherine will go out and ask an expert to find out. It's a place where you feel part of a team, safe and secure, which after being diagnosised with any cancer is difficult to feel. They accomplish this with follow up, caring comments, great information and always posting the latest research which save someones life.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

the unspoken calm their comments bring about in the folks diagnosed with this frightening and life threatening disease,

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

Not change a thing.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

reassurance.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

Kind, experienced, helpful, understanding, reassuring, comforting.

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

Keep the site going, offer more free clinics, offer sun awareness clinics, help researchers find something that will work to keep this cancer away.

Ways to make it better...

I'd never been diagnosed.

In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...

The lack of new options available for a cure leaving little to recomment other than trials for advanced disease.

One thing I'd also say is that...

I am very happy I stumbled across this website. It's always available, night or day and you feel a friend is only a click away

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?

2009

Role:  Client Served & Recently diagnosised Melanoma patient.
