You are Invited
When a life-changing diagnosis presents itself in life, many people will set aside their own health needs to prioritize care for someone they love and care for. Research clearly demonstrates that the health of the carer directly influences the prognosis of their loved one. With that being said, and as a caregiver and physician myself, I want you to feel that your health is valued and matters as you work to provide care. Please accept this invitation to join our intimate, authentic, honest and often dark humorous group, as we navigate your journey(s) together.
