Please join us for this special episode live from CancerCon®, a young adult cancer conference presented by Stupid Cancer®. In this episode, we’ll be speaking with patients and survivors about what the word, “survivorship” means to them.

We found the responses to this question can vary from patient to patient and even change once treatment ends. We hope that through their words, listeners will find a sense of connection and evaluate their own meaning of survivorship.

Be sure to stay tuned for the next episode from CancerCon, where we will be hearing from experts who presented on various aspects of survivorship, such as the growth mindset, creating a survivorship plan, and imposter syndrome.

*NOTE: For the safety of all participants, masks were required at all times during the conference. All cancer patients and survivors were encouraged to speak to their doctor prior to participating.
