Early Detection: The Importance of Testing in Breast, Lung, and Skin Cancer

Hello,

 

Today I'd like to share a new playlist on our youtube channel, Importance of Testing.  These videos cover prevention, screening, and early detection of skin, lung and breast cancers. 

To further your understanding and that of others, you are always welcome to post questions, thoughts, replies, and experiences.

 

Be safe,

Janine

I joined GRACE as a caregiver for my husband who had a Pancoast tumor, NSCLC stage III in 2009. He had curative chemo/rads then it was believed he had a recurrence in the spine/oligometastasis that was radiated. He's 10 years out from treatment.

Information everyone should have :)

Formas de hacer frente a las consecuencias del cuidado de otras personas

 


En esta sección, analizamos posibles medidas que podemos tomar para apoyarnos en las luchas que supone ser cuidador.

El apoyo y el cuidador

 


Cuidando a un cuidador

Cuando llegan los informes de las pruebas y la creciente expectación confirma los peores temores con un diagnóstico de cáncer, sin duda a quien más afecta es al individuo. Sin embargo, sus ondas son de gran alcance; lo compartimos con nuestros padres, familiares, parejas, hijos o amigos, y casi cualquier persona en la que podamos confiar en busca de apoyo.
