We are planning on taking a few tumor/cancer survivors to different areas of the pacific ocean to dispel the myth that “cancer is a death sentence.” Internationally, cancer survivorship is not as prominent as it is in the United States. Our plan is to educate the future healthcare professionals, current healthcare professionals, and patients that life after an intimidating tumor/cancer is not only possible but can also lead to changes in the stigma that cancer is a death sentence.
We firmly believe that the global stigma of a tumor/cancer diagnosis as a death sentence needs to be addressed and that tumor/cancer thrivers can be both a symbol and voice of hope in dispelling the myth that cancer is a death sentence.
Awaiting confirmation of the new venues in the summer/fall... details coming soon! Check out what we did last year: We'll be blogging more frequently this year!
