a forum designed to
heal, awaken, network,
discuss, & support

HANDS4GIVERS is a discussion forum for the husbands, partners, and caregivers guided by the experiences of others who lost their loved ones to this disease. Caregivers are isolated, alone, struggling with family finances, pressured by the unknown, and seeing their loved ones in decline and pain each day. They are in financial toxicity with all funds spent on keeping the Stage 4 BC woman alive. This forum allows them to open up and express their rage, fears, and uncertainties about what the future holds for them and their families. Our first forum saw them break down in tears, one caregiver couldn’t talk, and others were venting their rage against this disease. The LESLIE’S WEEK caregivers are never alone after their HANDS4GIVERS experience. The LESLIE’S WEEK private Facebook page for our caregivers aids in their communication and guidance from those who have lost their loved ones.
