Review for The Oral Cancer Foundation, Santa Fe, NM, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Excellent source of accurate information on oral cancer. Forum provides personal experience of others diagnosed and treated for oral cancer. Emotional support for patient and caregivers second to none. I found the site when my husband was diagnosed and going through treatment 2 years ago and continue to visit the site daily to offer what support I can to others, knowing how much it helped my husband and myself on our journey.

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

People that have completed treatment offering support and advice and daily issues affecting newly diagnosed and in treatment

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

Find some high profile people that could draw attention to the disease.

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

The wonderfully supportive folks on the forums.

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

Kind,compassionate and giving plus very knowledgable.

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

Raise awareness and money for research.

Ways to make it better...

I had found the site at the time of diagnosis.

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

Raising the profile of oral cancer so that more money is dedicated to research and also increased awareness of the prevelance of this type of cancer so that more routine screening is done.

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

Thanks all that work tirelesslty for the cause, especially Brian Hill.

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?

2009

Role:  Client Served & Caregiver to husband with oral cancer.
