Patient Support Group: After being diagnosed with a brain tumor, you may feel overwhelmed, frightened, and alone.  You may want to connect with others going through a similar situation. A support group can help by providing a place to discuss your feelings, share information, and talk about coping with a brain tumor.

Caregiver Support Group: As a caregiver of a loved one diagnosed with a brain tumor, you may find yourself facing a host of new responsibilities, many of which are unfamiliar. At times, you may feel overwhelmed and alone.  It’s comforting to give and receive support from others who un-derstand what you’re going through.

Facilitated by Ivy Center staff.  We will meet for the first portion of the time as a whole and sometimes may have a speaker. The latter part, pa-tients and caregivers will split into adjacent rooms and have opportunity to share and learn.
