TRACY MCELVEEN: There are
a plethora of free resources
available to cancer patients
today that many of them
don't know about as they're
going through the process.
These might be support groups
that are
free through the hospital.
They may be things
like a smoking cessation program
that might help patients,
you know, kick the habit.
They might be things
like programs that help patients
cope with stress and things
that they can do to celebrate
their survivorship.
So doing some research
and finding out what resources
are available is definitely
helpful and online searching
through the hospitals
the doctor's offices
or practices themselves.
And they really do provide a lot
of support for patients
and coping mechanisms
for patients that really helped
them navigate
through their journey.
