“Just try to treat a pancreatic cancer person as normal… they won’t be offended.” 💜 During our Survivor & Caregiver Panel at the Hirshberg Foundation Symposium, Gerri Weiner, a pancreatic cancer survivor, shared how exhausting it can be to repeat medical updates and how healing it was to have normal conversations. So often, friends and loved ones don't know what to say, or they downplay their own challenges, thinking, “It’s not as bad as you” but as Gerri reminds us, this isn’t a competition, it’s about connection. This Cancer Survivors Month, we honor the voices of those living with and beyond cancer and the wisdom they offer on what truly helps.
