Cancer Survivor Event: In your own words

Jan Crawford and her daughter Cortney Crawford join James Lechner, MD, medical director of the Providence Regional Cancer System, following his lecture on Patient Physician Communication. 
 

Another mother and daughter pair, Linda Buzbee and Norma Frey, take a break from the Survivor Celebration with Cobie Whitten, PhD, psycho-oncology consultant with Providence Regional Cancer System. Cobie spoke on Emotional Adjustments after Cancer.

Here's what a few participants had to say:

I enjoyed the presentations - very helpful and informative. I was somewhat reluctant to attend as I was recently diagnosed and had surgery and didn't know if I could deal with the info - it was uplifting and good to know about the resources available and everyone was so helpful and caring...It's nice to have a resource in the community.

This was a wonderful event. Thank you so much for this informational, inspirational and celebratory day...

I am so glad I came. I had been in the caregiver mode for about 15 months. My survivor just got married and moved. Seven days later my medical issues started and two days later I was diagnosed with cancer. This is a new look at the cancer world!! I needed this!

We loved seeing each and every one of you and can't wait to see you at our next event! Be sure to check the blog regularly for the latest and greatest happening at and around Providence Regional Cancer System.
