Often times, I get the question “What do you do for work?”. By saying that I am the Director of Parks and Recreation in Suffield, Connecticut, most people respond, “that’s nice”, thinking of youth sports, summer camps, arts & crafts and maybe some staff dressed in matching shirts and khaki shorts working with kids.

From the moment someone is diagnosed with cancer, (s)he becomes a survivor. Some have precious little time after the diagnosis, while some go on to live many years, but all are enlisted in the struggle. And like any war, there are heroes. People, who in the face of great odds and obstacles, display amazing courage, often just by putting one foot in front of the other and persevering, while a few buckle under the burden, many more rise up to throw everything they can against it. It is the story of that struggle that Survivor Journeys wants to honor no matter how brief or long the fight has been.
