That there is a world of us loving, living, surviving, fighting to the end. It’s a lovely community! ### 5/5 — Great support group *2022-04-04, version 8.0.44* For those of us that don’t like or just can’t get to in person support groups this is great. it’s 24/7 and guaranteed someone is up and on here at 2 or 3 am when you can’t sleep and just need someone to listen or get your questions answered. You learn all the things your medical team doesn’t tell you the little tricks to get you through chemo things like that. Although i’m not on it much now I still love it. ### 5/5 — Great app. *2022-04-04, version 8.0.44* I can send messages to other cancer patients to encourage them and other cancer patients encourage me. This is not an easy disease. It’s comforting to get messages from others in the same situation as I am. Thank you for this. Also it’s good to share my thoughts and current status with my oncologist. This app - program is great for that. I feel privileged to be part of this ongoing study. ### 5/5 — It’s a great community *2022-04-01, version 8.0.44* Cancer Life has given people a place to connect and track our systems in a quick, daily way. I have found the community to be the most helpful. Just knowing I’m not alone. ### 5/5 — Why I like it *2022-03-28, version 8.0.44* Cancer Life let’s me keep track of my symptoms and let’s read others journeys through this life we did not choose to live with an invasion of our bodies called CANCER and treatments we go through to rid ourselves from it, that take a toll on our bodies mind and soul. ### 5/5 — Cancerlife *2022-03-26, version 8.0.44* It’s been a good resource and place to vent and share following my breast cancer diagnosis. ### 5/5 — Cancerlife *2022-03-22, version 8.0.44* My favorite cancer app . The journey has beef tight but my pink sisters are a valued asset. ### 5/5 — Makes connecting easier *2022-02-01, version 8.0.38* This app makes it easier for cancer warriors to connect and discuss what they are personally experiencing and realize they are not alone. Sometimes telling your doctor the side effects you are experiencing just doesn’t seem to give you the assurance that it’s normal because they brush you off, but talking to others who are going through or have gone through what you have helps tremendously. Thank you ### 4/5 — Great App but Needs More Emotions *2018-06-05, version 5.37* I love using g this app a lot. It gives much information once I type it in that I dint have to try and remember. The only negative I have is that it needs more emotions/ feelings as well as symptoms. Otherwise it’s great and easy to use. ### 5/5 — CancerLife is excellent! Highly recommend it! *2018-06-05, version 5.37* CancerLife is a great tool for navigating all the details patients must keep track of in order to successfully get through their cancer treatment. In addition, the opportunity it provides to communicate with others similarly situated is invaluable to the emotional well being of cancer patients. ## Frequently asked questions about Cancerlife ### How has Cancerlife been proven to improve quality of life?
