Georgetown Hospital System is hosting a First Annual Cancer Survivors Day Celebration, sponsored in part by Waccamaw Oncology, and held in conjunction with National Cancer Survivors Day Foundation, Inc.
The "Chain of Survival" themed event will feature presentations from a two-time cancer survivor, a caregiver and oncologist. Displays and information will be available on such topics as support groups, cancer rehabilitation programs, nutritional needs, transportation and more. Refreshments will be offered.
Chain Project
A unique project recognizing survivors will be displayed at the event. Names, diagnosis and length of survivorship will be written on laminated paper links to form a chain. Survivors who wish to participate in the chain project should email their information to dmagnanelli@georgetownhospitalsystem.org.
The finished chain will be displayed at Francis B. Ford Cancer Treatment Center in Georgetown after the June 5 event.
