You Have Cancer.
No matter what feelings of fear and uncertainty are brought on with the words ‘You have cancer’, patients are left with no choice but to face their cancer diagnosis head-on. Cancer patients don’t get to choose whether to let fear or uncertainty hold them back from persevering through treatment. Because of this reality, the Windsor Cancer Centre Foundation is calling on our community to find ways to Show Us Your Brave.
