The Cancer Centers at CSM Hospital Ozaukee and Water Tower Medical Commons will be hosting Oncology on Canvas mid-November. This art exhibit enables us to reach patients and hospital visitors with messages of hope from others who have been touched by cancer. Oncology on Canvas is an art exhibit offered by Lilly USA, LLC, in partnership with the National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship (NCCS).

People diagnosed with any type of cancer, their families and friends, caregivers, and healthcare providers were invited to submit works of art in the form of acrylic, watercolor, oil, pastel, photography and one-dimensional mixed media. After an art competition, the collection of artwork tours on exhibit to various hospitals and cancer centers. Columbia St. Mary’s now has the opportunity to display this touching exhibit to our employees, physicians, visitors and patients. Look for upcoming dates and times in future issues of Go Beyond and on Message Board!

Columbia St. Mary’s physicians, employees and the community are invited for a gallery viewing.

As survivorship chair of Colleges Against Cancer at the University of Delaware, I would like to help local survivors celebrate life at a Bonfire/Hayride at Milburn Orchards.

As a survivor you deserve to be recognized and to rejoice in your hard work! We celebrate by supporting one another, sharing our stories and what we've learned, and by living life to the fullest one day at a time. What better way to do this than on a hayride out to a bonfire to roast marshmallows for s'mores!?

Come join in on the fun this Friday evening in November!
Email me at SurvivorHayride@gmail.com if you have any questions, concerns, or even joys!

PLEASE RSVP BY SATURDAY NOVEMBER 7th.

Live, Laugh, Love!

A new support group for people with brain cancer in the New York area (Long Island, Queens, Brooklyn, NYC, North Jersey)is being launched November 7, 9:00-2:00 as a huge party on the roof of the Roger Smith Hotel.

There is no charge for members of our meetup group or anyone currently fighting cancer. For all others the cost is $40 to cover the open bar (9-11:00), free food and a DJ, live band, giveaways and fun contests. Space is limited so RSVP soon.

Anyone with brain cancer is encouraged to join our group but it is open to those with any type of cancer. The group is free and a great way to share experiences or just socialize. The site includes online forums as well for people who may not feel up to meeting face to face, but still would like to connect.
