"Today’s callers are more knowledgeable. But their emotional needs are still the same. Y-ME is here to provide information, hope, empathy, and sympathy."
At the heart of Y-ME National Breast Cancer Organization is the Y-ME Hotline, the only place in the world where someone can call – 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year – to talk to a breast cancer survivor and be understood in 150 languages.
Y-ME Hotline peer counselors are trained and certified peer counselors who are breast cancer survivors. We don’t give medical advice – we are not medical professionals – but we are trained to handle all types of questions and concerns related to breast cancer and provide emotional support.
It's okay to ask the tough questions. We asked these questions when we were diagnosed, and people ask these questions all the time:
