POLSON — A cancer support group meets from noon-1 p.m. on the second and fourth Wednesdays of the month in the St. Joseph Medical Center Chapel located inside the front entrance to the hospita. The support group is for anyone affected by cancer and is led by Pastor Matthew Connally of the Ronan / Polson Nazarene Church. The group welcomes those recently diagnosed, those undergoing treatment, cancer survivors, and/or family members. The group aims to provide a safe place for members to share, learn, support, and encourage members after a cancer diagnosis; and, to conquer the fear in themselves and others. Confidentiality is practiced. Gatherings are informal, folks may drop-in as schedules permit and can bring a brown bag lunch. Cheerful Heart, an organization of volunteers who provide non-medical services for cancer patients in Lake County since 2002, sponsors the support group. Cheerful Heart message line is 406-883-3070 or go to the Cheerful Heart web site at: www.cheerfulheart.org or email cheartinc@gmail.
