Melbourne support groups?

me again are there any groups that meet in the Melbourne area?  I am actually Sunbury but Work in south Melbourne  and we are only 30-40 minutes in good traffic.  I think I am going to ask for some counselling as well next visit to royal Melbourne. I think I am at limit now 

thanks in advance 
  • Thanks @Fiona2. I am looking for after hours ones at this stage. Hoping to hear from the Sunbury group.
  • 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
  • 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
  • Hi there @DearB how did you go did you contact Lauren from young pink sisters yet?. Margie x
  • 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
  • Having a coffee date shortly with a lady from Sunbury who’s daughter used to be friends wth my middle daughter.
