Family Building and Cancer: Navigating Our Emotions

Wednesday, May 14th @ 7:30pm ET

Join Elephants and Tea and This Is Living With Cancer™ for a three-part series utilizing our Healing Through Writing Workshops. These theme-based workshops will explore therapeutic writing as a form of processing and coping with ones’ cancer experience to help live life beyond your diagnosis.

A cancer diagnosis can impact the way we feel about family building and the emotions that come with these conversations and decisions. This writing workshop will encourage participants to explore their emotions around family planning after a cancer diagnosis in a supportive space with others who get it.

Target Audience: Open to all young adult cancer patients, survivors, and/or their partners who are contemplating family planning and building.

Participants will feel the power of writing and sharing parts of their story not only to help others, but to help aid in their own healing as well.

Elephants and Tea staff guide participants through writing prompts and an open discussion after each exercise as a way to empower oneself and connect to their peers.

Ready to share your story? Participants who wish to build upon the writing they start in the workshops can submit their pieces for a chance to be included in a special edition magazine. The issue will highlight stories from all three workshop perspectives and themes.

No experience with writing is necessary!
