Ovarian Cancer Support Group | Kadlec

News & Events

Welcome to the Ovarian Cancer Support Group at Kadlec. We understand that navigating through a cancer diagnosis can be a challenging journey, and our support group is here to provide comfort, guidance, and resources to women who are facing or have faced ovarian cancer.

What is Ovarian Cancer?

Ovarian cancer is a type of cancer that begins in the ovaries, the reproductive organs responsible for producing eggs and female hormones. It often goes undetected until it has spread within the pelvis and abdomen. Early-stage ovarian cancer may not present noticeable symptoms, leading to a delayed diagnosis.

Why Join Our Support Group?

Our support group offers a safe and understanding environment where you can connect with others who have firsthand experience with ovarian cancer. The benefits of joining our support group include:

  • Emotional Support: Share your feelings, fears, and experiences with individuals who can truly relate to what you're going through. Our group members provide empathy, encouragement, and a sense of community.
  • Education and Information: Stay updated on the latest advancements in ovarian cancer research, treatment options, and resources. We provide educational materials and guest speakers to empower you with knowledge.
  • Practical Tips: Learn practical tips for managing the physical and emotional challenges that come with ovarian cancer. From coping with side effects of treatment to enhancing your overall well-being, our support group offers valuable advice and guidance.
  • Sharing Personal Stories: Listening to others' experiences with ovarian cancer can provide inspiration and hope. We encourage members to share their personal stories and celebrate their victories along the way.
  • Access to Resources: Our support group connects you with local and national resources that can further assist you in your ovarian cancer journey. From support services to financial assistance programs, we strive to ensure you have access to the necessary support and care.

Meeting Details

The Ovarian Cancer Support Group at Kadlec meets regularly on the first Wednesday of every month from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM. The meetings are held at the Kadlec Regional Medical Center. Attendees are encouraged to bring a caregiver or loved one for additional support.
