Families Adapting To Cancer Through Education and Support

A diagnosis of cancer can place stress on everyone it touches. Sharing with other survivors and their loved ones can often help you cope with the fear and doubt the illness has created in your life. Through FACES, the Methodist Cancer Center staff hopes to provide cancer survivors and their family members the information they need for mutual caring, awareness, education and encouragement.
