Spring Retreat for East Texas Cancer Survivors Offered
East Texas cancer survivors can participate in East Texas Medical Center Cancer Institute’s annual “Great Getaway” spring retreat Tuesday through Thursday at the Bluffs at Pine Cove, southwest of Tyler near Lake Palestine.
The retreat gives cancer survivors a chance to relax and refocus and provides opportunities for meeting others who share concerns associated with living with cancer. Any adult who has been diagnosed with cancer is invited to attend.
“This is a chance to get away from the stress of day-to-day life and enjoy the company of others who have been through similar experiences,” according to Todd Sigmon, ETMC Cancer Institute vice president. “Healthcare professionals, as well as cancer survivors, will be on hand to assist with retreat activities.”
