Special Chat: Nutrition and Holiday Eating
Chat with our registered dietitian and other patients and caregivers about nutrition during the holiday season.
Wednesday, November 20th
6:00 - 8:00 pm ET
We know what you are going through. Let's chat with each other.
Our live, weekly online chats provide a friendly forum to share experiences and chat with others about anything from the initial phase of diagnosis to treatment and survivorship. Each chat is moderated by an oncology social worker. The role of the moderator/facilitator is to provide support and guide conversation, as needed, throughout the chats. The moderator's role is largely determined by the wants and needs of participants in each chat. The online chats are not a replacement for psychotherapy or support groups. We invite you to join.
