 | This week, I am asking you to share your cancer story. Not only is it therapeutic, but also helps others. You may have been comforted by other patient stories when you were diagnosed or initially going through treatment. What a great service you will have done to help someone feel less afraid or alone during the hardship of having cancer. | |
