Such an amazing app

As a cancer survivor this app has been such an amazing way to meet and connect with other people who are battled the same way that I was. Couldn’t recommend enough!!

Amazing App!!

If you are apart of cancer community, this is the app for you. Caregivers, survivors, newly diagnosed!!! Join a community that understands.

Password

I couldn’t get a password to succeed so I gave up. Too bad a nice idea has to be so well protected. Maybe its to keep out old ladies like me.
