CARCINOID CANCER AWARENESS NETWORK INC
June 23, 2011
After being diagnosed a year ago with carcinoid cancer I felt helpless and alone. I spent countless hours researching my disease. During this frantic time I decided a support group would probably serve me well and I went to a meeting in N. Bellmore and met Maryann Wahman. I found the meeting very informative and open to questions from its members. I knew it was where I was supposed to be while on my journey. Maryann is always there when you need her and certainly a fantastic "support" team leader. I thank her from the bottom of my heart.
The Great!
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
helping me find the right doctors by going to see Drs. Warner and Zacks. I also receive timely emails and mailings regarding conferences and symposiums.
Ways to make it better...
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
Not knowing how other support groups are run, I don't see how they can do anything more than they do. They work very hard at getting information to their members, are very supportive and offer numerous tools for their members to use.
MY ROLE:
Client Served & I went to see the right doctors that I learned about through CCAN.
