"Staying Connected"
What you and your partner can do to maintain and enjoy
physical and emotional intimacy
Monday evening April 27, 2015 - times below.
Welcome to the free special evening presented by The Reluctant Brotherhood telephone support group, an US Too group. We are pleased and honored to have Barbara and Ralph Alterowitz as our presenters for this evening.
They are both highly qualified to be talking about intimacy after Ralph's surviving two bouts with cancer, prostate cancer and stomach cancer and have earned the respect and gratitude of thousands of people for their kindness, wisdom and work.
Physical intimacy supports and reinforces emotional intimacy.
It ranges all the way from loving touches to full-fledged intercourse.
Sadly, many couples affected by prostate cancer lose their emotional connection because cancer treatment has affected the man’s sexual function.
Barbara and Ralph Alterowitz are AASECT-certified Sexuality Counselors, and Ralph is on the American Urological Association (AUA) Male Sexual Dysfunction Panel.
They have authored several books on sexuality and cancer, and are the founders of the non-profit Center for Intimacy After Cancer Therapy. Barbara & Ralph have conducted many seminars for support groups.
