Barbara Shinn, Local Support Group Leader/Facilitator
The meeting will be facilitated by Barbara Shinn, an acoustic neuroma watch and wait patient.
Who should attend? Family members, caregivers, friends and interested persons are encouraged to attend.
Benefits of attending a local 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, overcoming handicaps
and reassuring others that better times lie ahead; educating and informing each other 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.
