Barb participates in the Young Adult Breast Cancer Group and attends yoga classes twice per week. “I now realize how much the anxiety has affected me; it is so helpful to hear from other women in the group that what I am experiencing is normal.” Barb is doing well and The Gathering Place is a big part of that By making a gift today, you will not only ensure that The Gathering Place is here to support others like Barb on their journey, but you will guarantee that our programs remain available at no cost.

What a truly memorable evening we shared with Katie Coleman (and her husband, Brian) to celebrate the launch of her book, Too Young for Cancer. Thank you to Edward Mouradian from Stupid Cancer for leading an insightful and impactful interview with Katie. We also want to express our gratitude to everyone who attended, especially those who may be newly diagnosed or currently undergoing treatment. Your courage to ask thoughtful questions and advocate for yourselves was truly inspiring. Katie Coleman, thank you for your openness and vulnerability in sharing your story — from the challenges of misdiagnosis and navigating the healthcare system to the importance of support groups and patient advocacy. Your reflections on confronting mortality at such a young age have deeply impacted all of us, reminding us to find joy in the little things we often take for granted. On behalf of all your friends at The Gathering Place East & West, Stupid Cancer, Udderly Smooth (and so many other supporters) we are incredibly proud of you and the release of your book! Please know that you are ALWAYS welcome to visit us anytime and we can’t wait to see what you do next!
