Patients with Cancer Can Teach Others About Resilience in the Face of the COVID-19 Pandemic

The following is an excerpt from curetoday.com

Those who have experienced cancer can teach others about resilience and fearlessness in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic, says Martha Raymond.

The social isolation and fear of infection that many individuals are currently living with are already familiar to patients who have gone through cancer treatment, said the founder of the Raymond Foundation. Being familiar with the disruption and anxiety that comes with cancer gives patients a strength that others can learn from.

“I think there’s a lot that all of us can learn from cancer patients as we all go through this unprecedented pandemic.”
