Support

  

The support of family, friends and others can be helpful in many ways as you go through diagnosis, treatment and beyond. In this chapter, you will find information on the physical and emotional support you may need.  

You can also call our breast care helpline at 1-877 GO KOMEN (1-877-465-6636) for more information. Our breast care helpline provides free, professional support services to anyone with questions or concerns about breast health or breast cancer.  

We also offer tips from survivors, family members and friends on ways to be a source of support (from lending an ear to cooking a meal) when someone you care about is diagnosed with breast cancer.
