Guest guest Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 , I live in Ft Lauderdale and have heard there is a support group here but I never checked into it so I have little to recommend. Perhaps you could find a group through the American Cancer Society. Also, I would look at the New Prostate Cancer Info website. The site founder is Dr Krongrad who is based in Miami. The site has a social network page that may lead you to what you seek. Good luck.JeffSubject: S Fla Support groupTo: ProstateCancerSupport Date: Tuesday, June 8, 2010, 6:55 PM I had prostate surgery about a year ago. I have some side effects which are getting a little difficult to deal with. I am 53 single, unattached which even makes it more difficult to get out there and meet people again. I went to a support group in Miami but found it difficult to relate. Most of the men were in their 70's and some came with their wives. Does anyone know of any active support groups in Miami or Ft Lauderdale?Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 I felt the same with the one I go to in WIS. I did find that the one in Waukesha is excellent with some younger men there with their wives. I PREFER ALL MALE...and I did find one in Milwaukee..that is called MAN FOR MAN...being held at a downtown Milwaukee hospital. I found that on a PROSTATE cancer WEBSITE....! I also have single male friend that sent me a website that had the info on it. If you would like more info..let me know and I'll get it for you. HOWEVER..would not include the Miami area..but can't help to think that the same group would not be there.
