We'd like to extend an invitation to you all to join our next webinar, which will focus on: Fear of cancer coming back – “What can I do to stop feeling this way?".   Feeling anxious and frightened about the cancer coming back (recurrence) is the most common fear for cancer survivors, especially in the first year after treatment. For some people, this fear may affect their ability to enjoy life and make plans for the future. Living with this fear has been described as a shadow on your life. Some survivors say that with time their fears lessen. However, many people still find that they worry at certain times. We will be discussing some tactics you can implement to help manage these fears.   When: Thursday, 5th April 7-8pm AEST.   Please register here - If you are unavailable to attend, you will be emailed a link to a recording of the webinar to watch at your leisure. ...
