Directions

The main entrance to the Harold C. Simmons Comprehensive Cancer Center is located at the Seay Building on UT Southwestern's North Campus at the intersection of Inwood Road and Redfield Road, which is between Harry Hines Blvd. and Forest Park, on the north side of the road.

A stoplight at the intersection makes for easy access from either direction on Inwood Road. Drive all the way to the circular driveway in front of the Seay Building, where valet parking is located under the awning.

Tell the valet parking attendant that you are there for a meeting and were instructed to park in the open area. (Valet parking closes at 6:30 p.m.)

Enter the Seay Biomedical Building. Follow the signs to Moncrief Radiation Center, which is to the right and through the glass doors.

Take the elevator to the third floor. Turn left when you step off the elevator. The meeting is held in conference room NF3.102.

Husbands and Partners Men's Group

Art Bourgeault became a member of the Husbands and Partners Men's Group when his wife Cathy was in cancer treatment. He remains an active member today.

When the woman you love is diagnosed with cancer, it alters her life. But it also alters yours. It is a parallel journey through cancer.

Traditionally, men are expected to be emotionally strong, but watching a loved one battle cancer can be very difficult. From the fear of losing your loved one, to family worries, to financial concerns, it can be overwhelming at times.

Cancer patients have support groups to help them, but where do you go to deal with it all? Husbands and Partners is a support group for men to help you navigate the journey as your wife or partner fights cancer. A place to talk about issues, hopes, and fears with other men who can truthfully say, "I understand."

It is a casual environment, with men addressing many of the same challenges and struggles that you have. It is a place where accomplishments are cheered as well.

Join us for some talk, comfort, understanding, and help as you face one of life's greatest challenges.
