experience, who give basic care to cancer patients. They have primary access to information, resources and services.
It’s essential they stay healthy not only for their good but also for the good of the patient. We try to provide
a single reference source for them to access on line information. Caregivers provide encouragement, support, and assistance
to patients. ....
. A talk with God can work wonders
for the patient and caregiver alike. The power of Prayer is a resource usually overlooked by modern medicine. Even the simplest
Prayers can provide comfort and the ability to find the strength, wisdom and courage needed to keep going in Jesus’
name… example “Jesus help!” .. Studies show many cancer patients
are interested in support groups but few actually attend them regularly. They provide patients and caregivers connection to
others for information sharing, coping skills, and ideas. Discussions with others who have been through similar problems or
experiences can be quite beneficial. We pray this page can facilitate your information search, and assistance while renewing
your faith in Jesus.
