What Is Your Truth About Cancer?
The recently aired PBS documentary, The Truth About Cancer, chronicles the path of four people dealing with cancer. The film takes a hard look at the decisions and challenges people must face along that road: what treatments to undergo, when to stop treatment, how to address the end of life, how to hold on to hope, where to find courage. Programs like this are excellent opportunities for cancer survivors to share their own experiences. We want to hear from you. What is your truth about cancer? How did you make decisions?
