Amazing help to find resources, education and support as you navigate this cancer journey
You're not on this journey alone. Here are some thoughts from patients and their loved ones on the very same journey
Evaline: “Just don’t give up, fight it every day!”
Terry: “Always stay positive. It has greatly made a difference with my hubby.”
Larry: “Fight hard, listen to the doctors and pray.”
John: “We persisted in our efforts and got the anti-biotic approved. Instead of $208,000/year, it will be $2000/year! Let people know that it takes an extreme amount of patience and phone calls to find the right person to help them through the maze, but it’s worth the effort. Don’t take “no” for the answer.”
“You have cancer’ are very scary words, but they don’t have to be a death sentence.”
“Always get a second opinion.”
