Butterfly Kiss Support Group
The Cecil B. Highland, Jr. Barbara B. Highland Cancer Center at United Hospital Center (UHC) provides a support group for breast cancer survivors, which is called Butterfly Kiss. UHC wants to assure you that you are not alone; you have come to the right place for support, information, and understanding. This is an informal gathering for anyone who has ever been diagnosed with breast cancer.
Caregivers Support Group
Caregivers support group is a monthly opportunity to discuss the challenges of caring for someone with cancer. This support group is for cancer survivors, their families and caregivers coping with cancer, from the newly diagnosed to any sage of survivorship. We offer a lite lunch while we discuss ways to meet the daily psychological and physical challenges of cancer treatment. This is a chance to meet with the Cancer Navigators and others who have had similar experiences.
Meetings: Last Thursday of each month at noon in a UHC classroom (see the main hospital registration desk for classroom location).
For more information call: (681) 342-1793 or (681) 342-1796.
Group Workshops
Volunteer beauty professionals lead small groups, usually about 6 to 10 women, through practical, hands-on experience. Women learn about makeup, skin care, nail care, and ways to deal with hair loss such as with wigs, turbans, and scarves. Each woman gets a free makeup kit to use during and after the workshop.
