life after cancer looks like. This unique celebration will mark the 27th annual
National Cancer Survivors Day, Thousands of people in hundreds of communities
across the U.S. and abroad - and in Second Life - will hold celebrations on
this day to honor cancer survivors and to show that there is life after a
cancer diagnosis – and it’s something to celebrate.
National Cancer
Survivors Day is an annual worldwide Celebration of Life. It is the one day
each year that we come together to honor everyone who is living with a history
of cancer – including America’s 14 million cancer survivors. “A ‘survivor’ is
anyone living with a history of cancer – from the moment of diagnosis through
the remainder of life,” according to the National Cancer Survivors Day
Foundation, administrator for the celebration.
NCSD provides an
opportunity for cancer survivors to connect with other survivors, celebrate
milestones, and recognize the healthcare providers, family, and friends who
have supported them along the way. It is a day for cancer survivors to stand
together and show the world what life after cancer looks like.
NCSD is recognized by
the American Cancer Society. For more information go to:
