Patient organisations and peer associations

Onco-haematology ... there are many different cancers that fall under this heading. For instance, there is Hodgkin and Non-Hodgkin, Waldenström, Lymphona, acute leukaemia, etc. Patients suffering from any of these diseases have specific questions, specific needs. They want to get the right information about the disease and its treatments, they want contact with peers, who know what they are talking about, because they are in the same boat.

To help patients, but also their relatives, with this, vzw SuperNils likes to share here some websites of different patient organisations and fellow sufferers' associations. That way, you have some correct information at hand and can contact the most appropriate person directly. He or she will be happy to help you.

Vzw SuperNils is a member of the BHS-PaC (Belgian Haematological Society - Patient Committee) and is therefore in direct contact with all these organisations. If you encounter any problems with contact or do not know who exactly to contact, we would like to help you where possible. 

Supporting organisations

Some organisations offer all kinds of support to patients and their families. This can range from organising holidays and activities to supporting mental well-being. We give a limited overview of these organisations here.

Informative organisations and websites

We are also happy to provide some information on organisations and websites you can go to for information about your illness and its consequences. But rest assured, ... there are others!

Grief and loss organisations

Science has already achieved a lot in research into the treatment and cure of serious diseases, such as cancer. Many people are therefore cured of such a disease and can take back their lives.

However, sometimes things also end badly and the patient dies. Losing a loved one is never pleasant and always has an impact on the lives of those who are left behind. Whether it is an older person or a young person, whether it is a parent, a close friend or your child ... There will always be mourners left behind, people who need to give their grief a place and pick up life again. Some people can do this alone, others need a listening ear or want to talk to people who went through the same thing.

Also know that grieving does not only occur with a final goodbye. Getting a bad diagnosis can also trigger a process of mourning and grief. After all, you have to say goodbye (temporarily) to certain habits in your life (quality of life may decrease, social contacts diminish, not going to work or school, no sports, etc.). We call this "living loss". People facing this also benefit from a listening ear, some support and help.

The organisation below wants to help you with that ... As a member, you will of course get to know many more!
