In addition to our new
clinical trial navigator featured in last month's newsletter, which helps people affected by gastric cancer find and participate in current research trials, we have also launched an
online community for patients and caregivers to find support in one another. Smart Patients in an online peer support resource where people affected by gastric cancer can share, learn, and connect with others who understand their experience. It is free to join and easy to post questions. The conversations are searchable so you can easily find what you're looking for.
All conversations in this nationwide community are private and can only be read by members. There are some great conversations going on this month about tips for managing post-op problems and how to be a supportive caregiver for someone dealing with gastric cancer.
