WHAT PSP MEMBERS SAY

"I am sorry to hear that you are most likely dealing with this diagnosis. I wanted to suggest Gilda's Club, a very supportive resource specifically for women with cancer. They are surely a great place to check in with regarding treatment and physicians and other support for patients and their caretakers."
