This page list websites that can help you research, understand and cope with your illness. While the web is a wonderful resource, it includes both information and misinformation. This page lists resources that we believe are more reliable. Websites change and we do not unconditionally endorse everything on these websites. We encourage you to discuss anything found on these websites that you do not understand. Included with some of the links is a brief overview of the site. Please give us your feedback on the sites you find most helpful.

Also included is information about support groups, hospice and most other issues that touch cancer patients.
