đȘ What It Means to Be a Survivor
Survivors may face:
Physical changes (fatigue, pain, mobility issues)
Emotional waves (fear of recurrence, anxiety, depression)
Lifestyle adjustments (diet, exercise, medication)
Social and relationship shifts (feeling misunderstood, isolated, or transformed)
A renewed sense of purpose â many survivors become advocates or inspirations for others
Survivorship is a journey of courage, community, and care. At Northshore Oncology, we honor every step of that path â with skilled support, compassion, and respect for each survivorâs strength and story.
