Together Community Offers Safe Online Space to Connect with Children, Adolescents and Families Affected by Cancer.
When your child has cancer, everything changes. You have to learn a new vocabulary, alter your day-to-day routines, and make critical decisions about your child’s health.
Families who face childhood cancer may feel alone. But it shouldn't have to be this way.
Connecting with other patient families can be one of the best ways to deal with the emotional, physical, and spiritual challenges your family faces.
The Together Community provides patients, survivors, and families a safe, online forum to connect with one another.
