hey drew, i know what it's like . my wife has been going through treatments and i have been trying to find a support group for husbands and family members to share there experience, strenght, and hope, much like a 12 step program . so far i haven't been able to find one . the medical field doesn't feel the family members need this type of help . keep reaching out and maybe someday the dr.'s will realize that a healthy husband who is the best he can be for his wife is a big part of her recovery . thanks for sharing drew  and stay in touch, dan

Hi,

I am from Road of Life: Cancer Prevention for Kids and I just wanted to tell you a little bit about our great program.

Road of Life: Cancer Prevention for Kids is a non-profit organization with a mission to eradicate preventable cancer and diseases of excess by educating children about the smoking, fitness, and nutrition decisions they can make to lead healthier lives.

We provide health programs FREE for download right off our website. Our programs consist of a classroom curriculum, after school program, a family program, and a Health Care Careers Program.

If you have any questions or if you would like more information, please feel free to visit www.roadoflife.org. We understand how hard it can be to battle it alone, and it is always great to have group support.

I have been trying to get support and talk to someone.  I have five children at home and my wife is at stage 4.  She had a double masectomy 2004 but, her cancer came back.She is so weak at time I have to do so thing for her til I sometime neglect myself and the kids. I have tried to get some help for her because its really over whelming me.  I just want to run but, I know thats not really God wants from me. 

just got started with sharpeosts hope to hear from other men in the same battle with their wives. i know it has been a few months since your last sahare post but drop a line or two at strengthman79@aol.com.
