| Guidance, Education, Support |
Guidance: A sarcoma diagnosis can be distressing and confusing. As sarcoma survivors, we can help guide you and your loved ones through the complex maze of medical providers, treatment options, and information sources available to you.
Education: Few people know the ins and outs of cancer symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, and clinical research before they find out they have a sarcoma. We can bring you up to speed on the basics, refer you to authoritative publications and websites for further study, and help you get plugged into the various support networks already established for adults and children with sarcoma.
Support: It can be a lonely experience finding out you have a sarcoma. We can link you up with other people facing similar challenges. We believe that the most successful patients are educated and connected to others for social support. The Alliance has a peer-to-peer webpage and a stories page to allow patients and their loved ones to share their experiences with others dealing with the same diagnosis.
Please contact us with any personal biographies and photographs, articles, websites or other resources we should post on our site. You can reach the Alliance via e-mail, phone, fax or mail if you have questions or concerns. We look forward to hearing from you. |
