“My experience at Wellspring has been truly amazing. Being diagnosed with breast cancer at 33 with 3 young children was very traumatic. However the programs at Wellspring have been my saving grace! I attend yoga twice a week, I have had Reiki treatments and attended a support group. I have met so many amazing people and have formed many friendships. No one wants to be a member of the “cancer club” but Wellspring offers a lot of resources and support. The library has a great variety of books for during treatment and coping after. Cancer is very isolating but Wellspring brings a sense of belonging and family. Thank you Wellspring!” -Cheri

“During my time with Wellspring I have encountered amazing men and women, at various stages in their cancer experience. I have made new friends, had the opportunity to try new activities and enhanced my understanding of both myself and others. Cancer is part of my lift but it is not me life nor does it define who I am. Wellspring offers a place and space to be me without judgement or pity.” – Diana
