St. Francis Cancer Center offers support to breast cancer patients

INDIANAPOLIS. – There’s more to fighting cancer than good medicine and technology. That’s why St. Francis Cancer Center offers a well-designed support program to help breast cancer patients.

Designed for those with breast cancer, this group provides a safe place to share thoughts, feelings and gain practical information from others in similar situations at any treatment stage.

Beginning Oct. 14, the group will meet the second Thursday of each month from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the Atrium, located at the hospital’s Inn at St. Francis (Indianapolis), 8111 S. Emerson Ave. The meeting location is best accessed at the Women & Children’s Services entrance.

The sessions are free; however, registration is recommended by calling 782-4422, or visit stfrancishospitals.org/cancer.
