Hello HealthUnlocked Community,
We want your input! I am excited to invite you to a very special Gathering HOPE social hour on Tuesday, March 8th at 5pm PT/8pm ET to explore and discuss the needs of the lung cancer community beyond your diagnosis, and the way that wellness-specific activities can support traditional treatment and improve your quality of life.
GO2 Foundation’s Senior Manager of Community Engagement and lung cancer survivor, Susan Smedley, will be leading an informal conversation to explore your interest in wellness and complementary medicine strategies. Many of these activities can help mitigate side effects while in treatment and for many years following a diagnosis. Topic ideas include oncology yoga, art therapy, breathwork, meditation, movement, journaling, and exercise. You will be invited to share your own experiences and interests, ask questions, and connect with other patients and community members who are also interested in learning more about wellness.
Following this month’s conversation, future Gathering HOPE events will offer a deeper dive into a specific wellness-related activity or topic. Subject matter experts as well as our own community members will share their experiences and lead conversation on a wide range of wellness topics.
To join us for the March 8th Gathering HOPE event, please go to our website at go2foundation.org and scroll down the Resources & Support tab, then click on Living Room Series and open the Gathering HOPE box and the link is in there. Join us at 5pm PT/8pm ET to be taken to the Gatherly event platform where you will enter your name and email address to sign in. You can then take a tutorial and check your connectivity, video, and sound levels if you like before joining us in the virtual room. (Please note that Gatherly only runs on Chrome or Firefox web browsers, NOT SAFARI).
Please let me know if you have any questions or ideas.
Looking forward to seeing you on Tuesday,
Big Hugs,
Michele Zeh
