PROGRAM GUIDE PROGRAM GUIDE

Programs for Individuals Affected by a Cancer Diagnosis

Focus On: Survivorship

Focus Survivorship

Providing helpful tools, encouragement and support to empower those who are post-treatment

SURVIVORSHIP

Readjusting after cancer treatment often comes with its own set of emotional and physical challenges. Getting used to fewer interactions with your medical care team, coping with long-term side effects, managing health-related anxiety and shifting expectations of what life “should” look like now are common challenges that you may face. Waterford Place recognizes the needs of survivors by offering programming, services and support to help you establish a thriving “new normal.”

Coping with Side Effects

Managing life without the reassurance of regular monitoring from your medical providers takes time to get used to. As you navigate the transition from frequent doctor appointments to routine checkups, you will develop your own system of navigating this process. Talk with your doctor about your follow-up care plan and when a symptom needs to be reported. Not all treatments will have long-term side effects so talking with your oncology team will help to prepare you for what to expect and what to do if you have concerns.

Fear of Recurrence

Experiencing anxiety before and after scans or feeling nervous about the thought that cancer may return is very common. Research shows that many lifestyle practices can help. Mindfulness exercises can be powerful interventions as they teach us how to stay grounded in the present moment, which helps to reduce worries of an unknown future. Taking control of what you can to reduce your risk of recurrence can be extremely empowering. Eating a healthy, plant-based diet, participating in regular movement, engaging in enjoyable activities and staying connected to people you care about are all successful ways of tending to your overall well-being.

Adjusting to a “New Normal”

The “new normal” is a phrase that is often used to describe life after cancer. Many cancer patients may expect life to return to a pre-cancer state. While it is reasonable to

expect some things to be as they were before, it is also understandable that other things will change. A cancer diagnosis can have a significant impact on everything from your perspective to physical abilities. It is normal to go back and forth between different emotions. Cancer can be disruptive to life but there are times it can be viewed as an opportunity for meaningful changes in all areas of life, including at home, at work and in relationships. It’s important to know that it

is normal to be conflicted about the changes in this stage of the cancer journey. It’s normal for family and friends of a cancer patient to be confused and unsure of how to be supportive. Being gentle with yourself and your loved ones, communicating your conflicting feelings with those you trust and finding intentional ways to move forward into these uncharted waters can help you transition into this next phase with confidence.
