To those who still read, I could use your help.

Hello! As many of you know, I am a doctoral student in the Department of Communication Studies at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. My research centers on health communication processes, and I am conducting research that I hope will improve our understanding of supportive communication between social networks and family caregivers of patients with cancer. As someone who has provided care to a patient with cancer, I am interested in
conducting research that is aimed at better understanding the memorable, supportive messages that are shared with family caregivers in cancer.

To participate: Participants in the states of Nebraska and Alabama must be at least 19 years old or older to participate, participants in the state of Mississippi must be at least 21 years old to participate, and participants in all other states must be at least 18 years old to participate. If you meet these requirements, and are a current or former family caregiver of a patient with cancer, and have 20-30 minutes to complete an online survey, you can participate in the study by clicking on this link: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/request-assistance-cancer-caregiving-research-alexis-johnson?trk=prof-post
