Gather Community Event: Caregiving for Others While Navigating Your Own Blood Cancer Diagnosis
This event will not be recorded. We encourage you to attend live.
Join us for a Gather Community Event created for individuals who are both caregivers and living with a blood cancer. This conversation offers a space to talk openly about the unique experience of holding two roles at once—caring for a loved one while also navigating your own diagnosis, treatment, and well-being.
In addition to our typical space for sharing challenges and successes, we’ll reflect on what connection looks like when you are both giving and receiving care. Together, we’ll explore what helps you stay connected to loved ones, to yourself, and to a supportive community, and exchange ideas that foster understanding, resilience, and a sense of belonging. Connect with others who understand the complexities of this dual journey, share what’s helped you, and find support among peers facing similar circumstances.
To help ensure a safe and supportive environment, this session is reserved for caregivers who are also living with a blood cancer. If you’re unsure whether this event is the right fit for you, feel free to reach out to cynthia@healthtree.org
