When managing stress during cancer, your mind matters.
“There is no other place where I can get the support that I need…that really understands the limitations of having cancer.
Prior to diagnosis, I functioned from day to day, meeting my goals. After being diagnosed that was taken away from me and I lost a sense of what it is to have hope and courage and just a sense of purpose and to me, being here, has given me that.”

Program Name: Therapeutic Journaling
Sue Meyn, M C, has been promoting journal writing as a tool for personal growth and self-care for many years.
