Coping after cancer
M recently arrived in Tokyo from Hong Kong and, as a breast cancer survivor, is wondering where she can turn for support.
"I had a double mastectomy back in the U.S. in 2005, and though I seem to be well, I really wish I had people to talk to who understand what I have gone though — am still going through."
The Kango Net is a community Web site connecting citizens and nursing personnel through St. Luke's Hospital in Tsukiji, Tokyo. It has a great support program called "Living At Your Own Pace" — see www.kango-net.jp/en/project/02/02_2/p02_03.html.
