The meeting will be facilitated by Marla Bronstein and Craig Lang, acoustic neuroma post-treatment patients.

Who should attend? Family members, caregivers, friends and interested persons are encouraged to attend.

Benefits of attending a support group include communicating in a nurturing, non-judgmental environment with others who have shared a common acoustic neuroma experience;
sharing information on dealing with specific problems, educational opportunities about the latest acoustic neuroma topics of interest;
and providing emotional support to all patients, both pre- and post-treatment.
This helps in reducing the isolation and loneliness that many acoustic neuroma patients feel.
