Hi friends,
I'm 41 years old and five years into my journey with metastatic breast cancer (MBC).
My husband and I are new to the Jacksonville area and he is in need of some social support / group talk therapy.
I'm trying to find a support group --ideally one that meets in person -- for spouses/caregivers with loved ones who have MBC or advanced cancer of any kind.
Any thoughts/suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Hi @lexgorman, welcome. I’m tagging @muradangie who may be able to steer you in the right direction to find a support group in Jacksonville, FL for caregivers supporting loved ones with metastatic cancer.

I know that you asked about in-person support. However many support groups have temporarily or permanently moved to meeting online (Zoom). For example, this caregivers group:
- Caring for the Caregiver Support Group (Florida) https://connect.mayoclinic.org/event/caring-for-the-caregiver-support-group-florida-12/
They meet on Thursdays from 11-12. He is welcome to join this Thursday.

Lex, how are you doing?
