​Cancer Help and Resources

​“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” ─Isaiah 41:10

Cancer patients generally have lots of questions. Whether you or someone you know has been directly affected by cancer, educating yourself about the disease can be an overwhelming process. We have compiled a list of resources and information to help you learn more about options and opportunities available to you, as well as blogs and books written by those who have been there before.
