POLSON —Anyone affected by cancer will gain understanding of others, inspire and support others or just find a safe place to share or listen when attending the Cheerful Heart Cancer Support Group.
The group meets from noon to 1 p.m. on the second and fourth Wednesdays of the month in the Chapel at St. Joseph Medical Center. The group is led by Pastor Matthew Connally of the Ronan/Polson Nazarene Church. The Chapel is located inside the front entrance to the hospital.
Gatherings are informal allowing folks to drop-in when schedules and life permits. Folks can bring a brown bag lunch. Confidentiality is practiced, anything spoken in group stays with the group.
Cheerful Heart, an organization of volunteers who provide non-medical services for cancer patients in Lake County free of charge since 2002, sponsors the support group.
