The Naoni's Children cancer support group meets the second Friday and the last Friday of each month at 6 p.m. at the Hidden Treasures store in Monongahela, where we hope to be able to talk, laugh, share, connect, love, care, listen, support, pray, and learn to help others live with a "new normal."

This support group, sponsored by The Church of Jesus Christ, has been set up by Terri Nath and Melissa Cherry, both cancer survivors, nurses, and deaconesses to help those suffering with cancer of any age and their caretakers.

The second Friday meetings will have different group activities, and at last Friday meetings, we discuss problems those may have and will discuss different topics concerning cancer.

We have a project called "The Tie That Binds," where we and many volunteers around the area make no-sew fleece blankets that we take monthly to the cancer patients at Mon Valley Hospital receiving chemo. We also provide port-pillows for those who have ports to use on their seat belts.

Additionally, there is a private Facebook page you can join. It's called ‘cancer support group Naoni's Children.’ You must be accepted by us so that it can remain a positive, private site. Soliciting or negative comments are not permitted.

We hope to be a help and support system to you during the greatest fight of your life. All are welcome to our meetings, and we hope to see you there. If you have any questions, call Terri at 412-266-2043.
