Survivorship Resources
Life after childhood cancer treatment can be challenging. There is relief in knowing that your treatment is over, but there is also some fear that you won’t be seen as frequently or followed as closely — so it is important for survivors and parents of survivors to know what to look for and how to get help with issues that could arise after cancer treatment. Below are some resources* that may be helpful. If you have specific questions, please ask your health care provider or email the PFC Survivor Helpdesk.
