Here's what people are saying about these resources:

• I had cancer the first time in early 1980’s; there was no supportive care. I am so grateful to have it for my second (and recent) cancer diagnosis. It has made the healing process (including mental, physical, nutrition and support) all extremely valuable to me in my recovery. Thank you for being in Thurston County!
• I would not want to go through cancer treatment without these services − they all help so much.
• These programs are great and help in all ways to help us fight our battle with [being] 'just a statistic;' gives us more tools for the fight.
• My naturopathy visits have provided a wealth of information to strengthen my diet and supplement program. I feel this has given me the best possible plan to support my traditional treatments.
• One day, out of the blue, it dawned on me that the burning sensation was gone from my feet. Hooray for acupuncture!
• t’s great to have an experienced person doing the massage since deep tissue massage is not good for those during chemo.
• The yoga class is a wonderful journey, interacting with and supporting each other as we go through the cancer journey together.
