It's important to get your yearly screenings! https://lnkd.in/eChnE-NV

"A cancer diagnosis is never easy, with all the fears and unknowns that come with the experience. What can be even more difficult is that many of our loved ones, friends and family alike, don't know how to be with us in this experience, and sometimes drop out for a myriad of reasons. Especially for the younger folks, the social isolation can be as devastating as the diagnosis itself," says Julie Barr, MFT, Director of Clinical Programs at Cancer Support Community SF Bay Area. Cancer Support Community (CSC) offers a place where others understand what you are going through and can give you the social support you need at this difficult time in your life. At CSC, you are not alone, and you can feel buoyed by many different types of support we offer, groups, individual counseling, fun classes and social activities, all offered at no cost to participants.
