Hi All!
We had the second Appendix Cancer Support group today, but only one participant beside myself. We did have trouble using GoToMeeting so got a late start. I hope none of you were there and unable to connect? If so, PLEASE let me know! I may go ahead and try to get us a Zoom account, that worked well last time.
I need input from you. How many of you would like to join our support group? It’s a great thing! Please email me at
carolyn@appendix-cancer.org if you would like to be part of the support group, and then maybe I will post a list of dates and times to find the best time for everyone. If you email me, let me know the best time range for you. You can also text me at 219-776-9913.
Let me know!
Carolyn
Hello Carolyn,
My name is Phyllis Pearce and I hope this finds you. I was diagnosed with Appendiceal cancer after emergency surgery in Feb of 25 after an emergency appendectomy surgery. There was a tear in the Cecum and I ended up with a hemicolectomy. I have not been diagnosed with PMP to date. I had an MRI and colonoscopy in June and those came out clean.
Are there others out there that are or have been in a similar situation?
I would very much like to connect with others for advice and council.
There are support groups that I highly recommend! First, we have an Appendix Cancer Support Group. https://www.facebook.com/groups/appendixcancer
PMP Pals also has Zoom support group meetings twice a week: https://pmppals.net/hope-zoom/
Abdominal Cancer Alliance has a support network: https://www.abdominalcancers.org/patientandcaregivernetwork
I hope this helps!
