SUMMARY:Writing Circle Wednesdays
DESCRIPTION:Writing Circle Wednesdays are for individuals who are currently receiving or who have completed cancer treatments.\nThese sessions meet on Zoom from 3 to 5 PM CT. (Times sometimes vary.) Anyone interested may join at any time. \nLiving with cancer is a lonely journey. Only those who have been or are on that same journey truly understand the emotions\, fears and challenges we face each day. I was hoping to gain some insight into how others coped with their diagnosis. I not only gained that\, but also came to understand more fully my own reactions to my personal cancer story. This was a valuable experience for me. I don’t feel quite as alone as I did. —A Past Participant \nThese sessions are led by Ana McCracken\, founder of the Ames Writers Collective and held in partnership with the William R. Bliss Cancer Center located in Ames\, Iowa. Registration is free and required. Contact Ana for questions and to register.

SUMMARY:Writing Circle Wednesdays
DESCRIPTION:Writing Circle Wednesdays are for individuals who are currently receiving or who have completed cancer treatments.\nThese sessions meet on Zoom from 3 to 5 PM CT.\nAnyone interested may join at any time. \nLiving with cancer is a lonely journey. Only those who have been or are on that same journey truly understand the emotions\, fears and challenges we face each day. I was hoping to gain some insight into how others coped with their diagnosis. I not only gained that\, but also came to understand more fully my own reactions to my personal cancer story. This was a valuable experience for me. I don’t feel quite as alone as I did. —A Past Participant \nThese sessions are led by Ana McCracken\, founder of the Ames Writers Collective and held in partnership with the William R. Bliss Cancer Center located in Ames\, Iowa. Registration is free and required. Contact Ana for questions and to register.
