Caregiving

The Cancer Support Community (CSC) is proud to offer support and education for all people affected by cancer, including patients, their family, and friends. This episode of Frankly Speaking About Cancer, hosted by CSC President and CEO, Kim Thiboldeaux, focuses on the important role that caregivers play when a loved one is diagnosed with cancer. Dr. Laurel Northouse, a nurse scientist and expert in the field of cancer research, is joined by Bonnie Dockham, Program Director at the Cancer Support Community affiliate in Southeast Michigan, and Donna Fischer, a caregiver for her adult daughter. Together, the group discusses the role of caregivers in the cancer experience, the many challenges they face, and the resources and support available to them.
