E-MAIL LISTS
E-Mail lists can be a good place to seek information and support. There are good ones and bad ones out there. From my own experiences, I have found the emotional support from these lists has been very helpful to me and the practical advice from the many different caregivers who have 'been there and done that' opened up options and ideas that I'm not sure I would have ever come to on my own.
Cancer information system currently offering access to 99 electronic mailing lists and a variety of unique websites.
The mailing lists are specifically designed to be public online support groups providing information and community to 60,217 patients, caregivers or anyone looking for answers about cancer and related disorders.
I can't reccomend this organization highly enough. The information and support that has been gained through various mailinglists through this organization has and continues to be of great value.
ACOR (association of cancer online resources) which runs wonderful lists is a non-profit organization and does accept donations which goes to support the computers that send out millions of letters every week.
While there are many lists to choose from, I'm highlighting the following groups on ACOR:
E-mail support group for parents and caregivers dealing with Wilms
The Pediatric Cancers Online Support Group
Ped-ONC Survivors
LT-SURVIVORS: Cancer Long Term Survivors Discussion Group
