SUMMARY:Family Building After Cancer: Navigating Loss, Hope, and Uncertainty with Dr. Catherine Benedict
DESCRIPTION:\n\nFamily Building After Cancer: Navigating Loss, Hope, and Uncertainty with Dr. Catherine Benedict\nRegister here\nThursday, May 7th, 2026 from 6pm – 7pm ET\nPart One of our Living Between Grief and Hope: Family Building for Young Adults with Cancer Series with Worth the Wait\nFamily building after a cancer diagnosis can bring up complicated and often unspoken emotions. Alongside questions about fertility, timing, sexual health, intimacy, and options, many young adults find themselves holding both grief for what has changed and hope for what may still be possible. Dr. Catherine Benedict (Clinical Psychologist) will create space to explore the emotional and relational impact of family planning and family-building after cancer.\nTogether, we will normalize feelings of loss, uncertainty, and fear, while also making room for hope, meaning-making, and evolving visions of the future. Participants will learn common emotional responses related to fertility and sexual health, explore how grief and hope can coexist, and gain practical tools for coping and communication with partners, family members, and healthcare providers.\nTarget Audience: Young adult cancer patients, survivors, and/or their partners who are contemplating family planning and building.\nSponsored by Eisai Pharmaceuticals, Merck, and Walgreens\n\n\n\n\n\n
