Christmas with Cancer

Posted on 03:00 by Unknown
For people with cancer and their loved ones, Christmas and the holiday season may not be the “most wonderful time of the year.”

While no one can “skip” the holiday season, it’s important to keep expectations realistic. Let others help out if you need it, save your energy, and most importantly, share your feelings with others.

Oncolink blogger and cancer survivor, Rodney Warner, JD, writes about Christmas with Cancer in this Oncolink blog.

If you are someone with cancer, how will you cope with the holiday season?

Read this transcript of a live webchat from Oncolink called Surviving and Thriving During the Holiday Season for tips on coping with the holidays.

Penn's Abramson Cancer Center is a national cancer center in Philadelphia providing comprehensive cancer treatment, clinical trials for cancer and is a cancer research center. The National Cancer Institute has designated the Abramson Cancer Center a Comprehensive Cancer Center, one of only 40 such cancer centers in the United States.
