Are you a woman living with breast cancer?

Would you like to be part of a caring community who understands 
your unique experience as a woman with vision loss, who is also 
dealing with breast cancer?

The ACB Women's Concerns Committee has been sponsoring a 
telephone support group for just over a year-and we invite you to 
come and join us.  New members are always welcome.

This group will not give any medical advice, or provide therapy.  
It will foster a safe and positive atmosphere in which to discuss 
relevant issues and support one another.  If you are interested, 
please see above for instructions on how to access the conference 
call.

If you wish to participate in the support group and do not have 
access to long-distance telephone service please contact Lori at 
516-887-1336 or leave a message with Sharon Lovering at the ACB 
National Office at 800-424-8666 X.  2044.

When entering into the teleconference group please identify your 
self by first and last name and your location.

All participants must identify themselves upon entering the call 
to insure confidentiality and so that we know who is on the 
conference call.

We ask and expect everyone who attends group to observe strict 
confidentiality for anything discussed during group, so that 
everyone can feel comfortable sharing what they choose to.  This 
group is being facilitated by two social workers who are 
volunteering their services.

Looking forward to seeing you on January 5, 2010.
