Advance Directives

Advance directives are a powerful way to take control of healthcare choices. These documents allow you to outline preferences for medical care and specify end-of-life wishes. These documents can also be a way to appoint loved ones who you would like to help with these decisions, such as a healthcare proxy (someone to make decisions on your behalf, if you cannot). As cancer treatments can involve aggressive treatments and/or complex medical management, having advance directives ensures that your desires regarding treatment options and end-of-life care are clearly communicated.

Compassion Meditation Program

General Breast Cancer

Greetings everybody,

My name is Sneha Parikh, and I’m an undergrad student studying Psychology at the University of Arizona. I’m doing my honors thesis research in the lab of Dr. Thaddeus Pace, PhD, Associate Professor.

I’m reaching out today to see if any members of GRACE may be interested in taking part in a compassion meditation program that we are studying at the University of Arizona for breast cancer survivors and their family members. Unlike many other meditation programs, this meditation group meets by Zoom, so it can be done from anywhere in the United States.

Early Stage/Surgery

Hi everyone, I'm new here and I'm grateful to have found this site.I created a post a few minutes ago but I can't find it! I hope I'm not duplicating this. I was diagnosed stage 1A add no carcinoma in August 2020. I had my upper left lobe removed via VATs surgery. My tumor was 2.5 x 2.5 x 2.1 cm, adenocarcinoma, lepidic predominant with focal papillary feature.  Grade 1-2, well to moderately differentiated. At the time of diagnosis, a PET scan showed a maximum SUV of 24.2 (which I believe is extremely high).
