Melbourne support groups?

Having a coffee date shortly with a lady from Sunbury who’s daughter used to be friends wth my middle daughter.  

Ok cool that’s good love im pleased xx

Thanks @onemargie. I have joined a sunbury group. And had contact with a lady for the young woman’s one. It wasn’t Lauren.  And I joined a graves support group.    Looking forward to words of wisdom and inspiration.    We got home today from the beach. It wasn’t long enough but already booked to go for labour day weekend as well

Hi there @DearB how did you go did you contact Lauren from young pink sisters yet?. Margie x

Yep no worries I contacted her and I was 43 when I was diagnosed may 2016 and I only found out about her and contacted her last year. Let me know how you go.  Margie xx

Thanks @onemargie Is 44 young enough.

Hi there @DearB there’s a great group called young pink sisters in Melbourne it’s run by a lady called Lauren bryant. Can even offer some financial support to reimburse the costs of meds and out of pocket medical bills up to $600. She is just lovely’s give them a call or google them and check them out. Hope this helps. Margie. Xx

Thanks @Fiona2. I am looking for after hours ones at this stage. Hoping to hear from the Sunbury group.

The Think Pink Living Centre in St Kilda Rd near the Shrine has support groups along with lots of wonderful activities such as Art therapy, yoga, walking groups, massage, education talks and Days of Indulgence.  I attend a group for the over 40's that meets monthly and there is a group for younger women and those living with advanced disease.  It is a fabulous resource and the breast care nurse Andrea is wonderfully supportive.  Unfortunately for me, my return to work deprived me of enjoying more of the many things on offer.

Thanks @Joannie
