Think Beyond Cancer INTRO

INTRODUCTION

Think Beyond Cancer is an online community championing the social cause of instilling hope in the minds of people living with Cancer.

Cancer is a curable disease and it is our firm belief that a huge portion of the stigma and the trauma involved can be avoided and mitigated through education and awareness. We have a unique collection of resources and provide accurate and timely factual information about Cancer and all its forms, in a supportive environment. We aim to guide you through the maze, unravel the confusion, and get you headed immediately down the healing road.

We strive to provide support and instill hope, to help patients and family members look beyond the diagnosis, cope with treatment, and start living life to its fullest once again. The crux lies in knowing that; it’s not about life after cancer, but that there is life and that every individual must be given an opportunity to live it optimally. We'll encourage you in positive ways and steer you from pitfalls. The nature of cancer demands decisive action. In short, we strive to make a difference in the fight against cancer.
