Support Groups
I live in the Tampa Bay area (Brandon) and guess what? There doesn't seem to be one support group for prostate cancer! Could this be right? It's the most common form of cancer among men (1 in 6 of us will get it) and not one support group in one of the largest markets in the nation?!?!
