We have our own Facebook group, specifically for CAF and veteran survivors. That's mostly how we function. Unfortunately, there's no funding for us to get together. When we do somehow manage to get together, it's incredible to have somebody who understands intuitively what we have gone through.
There was one lady I talked to online for seven years. Recently, we finally got to meet face to face. We just hugged. Peer support is incredibly important. That's how we communicate through Facebook. We also do a little coffee on whatever day is available, so we can just chat on screen.
There is a more formal peer support network through CFMWS. It's called HOPE, and it's for families that have lost. It's a more formal support. We're very informal.
