Any groups in Central New Jersey for Gynecological Cancers?

There is a group for "women's cancers" that meets once per month at St. Claires Hospital in Denville. I think there is a group at Morristown Memorial Hospital, but it is farther away from me so I didn't pursue it. There are so many breast cancer survivors that I think you'll have better luck finding what you need if you use the broader classification. I had endometrial cancer, and there are several of us in the group in Denville. Generally about 12 people attend each meeting, not always the same 12, and probably 4 are gynecological cancer survivors. Many of the issues are similar--dealing with surgery, radiation, lymphedema, and so on. It hasn't been a problem that the 2 groups are mixed together. Hope you find what you need. If you want more specific info about the group in Denville, I'll be happy to share more details.
