Cancer Focus NI - Myeloma Support Group
When someone is diagnosed with cancer, they may experience feelings of shock, anger, or confusion. Even the most supportive family members, friends, or employers cannot understand exactly how it feels to go through a cancer journey. A cancer support group is one way for individuals to interact with other people in similar circumstances.
What to expect?
A safe and welcoming space for local people to get to know each other and get the support they need. Meetings are designed to provide peer support for people who have had a diagnosis of myeloma. They also provide up to date medical information and current good practice for living well with blood cancer.
Support provided:
- Peer encouragement
- Social isolation
- Information about cancer services and treatment
- Fun, friendship, and mindfulness
