NATIONAL CANCER SURVIVOR’S DAY

Observed annually on the first Sunday in June, National Cancer Survivor’s Day sets aside time to “demonstrate that life after a cancer diagnosis can be a reality.” The day is a way for survivors to share their journey and offer hope and inspiration to those who have been newly diagnosed. Cancer survivors know the emotions and challenges associated with receiving a cancer diagnosis. They also know where the resources and support are for newly diagnosed cancer patients. The day encourages a celebration for survivors and their families. The day also offers a wellspring of support and outreach to cancer patients everywhere. While every cancer and treatment is different, cancer survivors know the journey is often overwhelming. National Cancer Survivor’s Day brings survivors and their families together in a wellspring of support.
