You have kids. You have cancer. No one prepared either of you for this. 💚 The good news is, we know what works. Research shows that kids whose parents have cancer benefit most from three things: honest, age-appropriate information about cancer, coping skills, and peer-to-peer support. These are the building blocks for our 5-week Connect Over Cancer program. Tap the 🔗 below to learn more and enroll your kids today. https://lnkd.in/d6nKM6R4 #PicklesGroup #CancerSupport #cancerCommunity #Parentingwithcancer #momswithcancer #FamilySupport #Childlifespecialist #oncologynurse

If someone had asked me to become a champion for lymphedema awareness, education, and prevention, I would have declined. But when this disease took hold of my right arm, hand, and fingers after my battle with breast cancer, leaving me unable to continue my clinical practice as a medical doctor, I realized the dire need to help others suffering from cancer-related lymphedema. There was a purpose for my pain, and it called me to action. Absolutely! Here are some hashtags that should help increase SEO and impressions for your LinkedIn repost: #LymphedemaAwareness #CancerSurvivor #BreastCancerAwareness #PatientAdvocate #HealthEducation #ChronicIllness #MedicalCommunity #HealthcareAdvocate #PatientSupport #CancerCare #LymphedemaPrevention #MedicalJourney #HealthAdvocacy #CancerFighter #Inspiration #OvercomingAdversity #PurposeInPain

📚 Today marks a significant milestone - the launch day of the inspirational book "Perspectives On Cancer: Stories of Healing, Hope & Resilience," and I am a featured author. ❤️ Perspectives On Cancer matter. We learn from them. We relate to them. They help us heal. This sentiment holds true not only for cancer but for any adversity life throws our way. Within the pages of this book, you'll discover the powerful stories of 15 individuals - cancer patients, survivors, and supporters. But this collection is more than just about cancer; it's a testament to the indomitable human spirit's capacity for healing, hope, and resilience.

This post by the Working with Cancer Initiative is a fantastic example of how employers can support employees affected by cancer. Sharing personal stories helps break down the stigma and fosters a supportive work environment. For our followers: consider creating a platform where employees can share their experiences and receive support from colleagues. Encourage open dialogue and provide resources to help employees navigate their cancer journey. Our Tree of Life Employee Vitality and Cancer Defense Program embodies this holistic approach. It supports individuals at every phase of cancer—diagnosis and treatment, survivorship, caregiving, and preventative lifestyle—enhancing their quality of life and fostering a supportive workplace culture. Kudos to Working with Cancer Initiative for leading the way in improving workplace support for cancer. #workingwithcancerinitiative #workingwithcancer #cancercommunity #takethepledge
Everyone impacted by cancer has a story to tell. This National Cancer Survivor Month, we'd like to hear yours. Has your workplace provided you with the strength and support to get past the stigma of cancer? Has your workplace provided you with the strength and support to get past the stigma of cancer?
