Good morning. I am looking for your help to find a support group that meets in my local area of Cocoa Beach, Florida. I am the caregiver to my husband who was diagnosed with a malignant GIST (stomach tumor) nearly three years ago. Three weeks ago we learned he has a meningistioma measuring 5x5x3cm that needs to be removed with surgery. I am struggling with this latest diagnosis and think I would benefit from group support. Thank you.

Hello @wendyah, welcome to Connect. You may notice that I moved your discussion and combined with a discussion titled, "Watching a meningioma brain tumor." I did this so that you would be introduced to the members discussion meningioma tumors, some of which are in a similar situation as you and your husband. While the members may or may not know of a in-person support group near Cocoa Beach, Florida, I think you will find the supportive nature here on Connect welcoming as well. There is also a Caregivers, group that has many thoughtful members discussing the difficulties of being in situations much like yourself, https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/caregivers/.

@wendyah, are there any specific questions you would like to ask the members discussing meningioma?
