Recognizing the needs of cancer survivors from the initial phase of diagnosis through treatment decisions and survivorship, the online chat forums bring non-Hodgkin Lymphoma, CML and young adult survivors together to share experiences and offer mutual support. The online live chats are not a replacement for psychotherapy or support groups.
These two-hour weekly live chats are offered to registrants and are moderated by oncology social workers. The role of the moderator/facilitator is provide support and guide conversation, as needed, throughout the chats. The moderator's role is largely determined by the wants and needs of participants in each group.
