We encourage each other to exchange contact information and to share positive personal experiences with one another for support and encouragement We are good listeners and understanding friends but we never give medical advice Our guest speakers and our group facilitators volunteer their time and we appreciate their efforts We attend meetings to help empower ourselves and others towards a healthy recovery. | At the Brain Tumor Center we strive to provide education, support and empowerment for those dealing with the challenges of a brain tumor. We believe through our speakers, our volunteers and our passion to help make a difference, we can serve as a useful and needed resource for patients to help improve their quality of life. The Brain Tumor Patient Support Group is for patients, their families and friends. Under the direction of Daniel F. Kelly, M.D. and patient advocate Sharmyn McGraw, our group will meet three times a year. Our Next Meeting: March 16th, 2010
