Every day, millions of people face traumatic changes to their health, when everything familiar turns upside down. What if they could take better control of their situation by writing about their experience and communicating more effectively by expressing their feelings? What if their struggles became a source of empowerment and inspiration? Research indicates that expressive writing-dealing with one's deepest thoughts and feelings-may contribute to improved physical and emotional health--for those with cancer and/or chronic disease. Everyone-- patients, caregivers and medical staff--has a story to tell. Many are uplifting while others may not be easy to digest. Through their authenticity, they reflect the staggering realities of dealing with chronic diseases. By opening your heart and giving writing a chance, you can discover the gift of personal expression--for you and everyone you know. Welcome to Write for Life.
