Living Beyond Cancer
Surviving cancer is more complicated than completing treatment or being declared “cancer-free.” Survivorship is an evolving, day-to-day process that begins with diagnosis and continues through the balance of life.

The Living Beyond Cancer module of the Cancer Survival Toolbox® introduces you to skills that help you adapt to life after cancer treatment when transitioning back to “normal life” can be especially difficult. The goal is to help cancer survivors move forward while addressing how to recover physically and emotionally months and years after treatment.
