Summary
BANGOR - This year in Maine close to 1,000 women will hear the words, "You have breast cancer." For a woman facing breast cancer, talking the experience over with a breast cancer survivor who has gone through treatment not only helps answer questions, but also gives her a role model for recovery.
The American Cancer Society's Reach to Recovery program offers this opportunity to women from the area by matching volunteer breast cancer survivors with women dealing with the disease. The program is meant to complement a woman's relationship with her doctor by helping to point out questions she should ask her physician, and providing additional nonmedical information. Visitors also let women know about resources for breast cancer patients.See the full content of this document
