TOPIC: Cancer: The Unwelcomed Guest- Cancer comes uninvited into our relationships leaving, frustration, exhaustion and fear in its wake. No relationship is immune. The power of the word “cancer” forces people to react based on their personal perceptions and experiences.

Whether drawing closer to the survivor or subtly pulling away, everyone reacts. But please understand this: cancer’s unwelcome entrance does not give it the right to dominate relationships. Karen will show both survivors and caregivers alike how to have the power to choose what role cancer will play in their relationship.
