Survivorship Webinar Series Session 2: Emotions: The Mind Body Connection

Description

People with cancer are living longer due to improved care, screening and newer treatments. The term “cancer survivor” identifies a community of people with a history of cancer, either at the time of diagnosis, during or after treatment. The effects of cancer do not end when treatment ends.

On Wednesday, August 3rd, the Cancer Education Center provided a free Survivorship Webinar Series to address the needs of cancer survivors.

Staff of the Stephen and Barbara Slaggie Family Cancer Education Center, located in Rochester, Minnesota, discussed the importance of  managing and dealing with difficult emotions that are often associated with a cancer diagnosis or when one transitions from active treatment.
