Stories of Survivorship

Each patient treated at Smilow Cancer Hospital has their own story to tell. Whether it’s the registered nurse who cared for hundreds of cancer patients herself over the years, the new mom shocked to get a diagnosis at 39, or the group of siblings who battled sickle cell disease, they each experienced a unique journey through treatment. Read their stories about healing and survivorship.
