The meeting will be facilitated by Nancy Graffius, a post-treatment acoustic neuroma patient.

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.
