New publication for cancer survivors

The Cancer Council Victoria has launched a new publication ‘Life after Cancer: A Guide for Cancer Survivors’, the first booklet of its kind in Australia.

The booklet has been developed in conjunction with the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, which is also launching a DVD ‘Just take it Day to Day: A Survivors Guide to Life After Cancer’.

With cancer survival rates on the rise, this is a critical resource for people living with cancer. It covers topics including returning to a ‘normal’ life, follow-up care and fear of your cancer coming back.

The booklet and DVD are ideal for people who have finished their cancer treatment and their carers, family and friends.

Victorians can order their free copy of the booklet and DVD by calling the Cancer Council Helpline on 13 11 20.
