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. Registration is free and required. Contact Ana for questions and to register.
