Monday, March 9, 6:00 – 7:30 pm
While fighting cancer at 26 years old, Jonny Imerman had loving support from family and friends, but never met anyone his age who was a cancer survivor. He wanted to talk to someone just like him, someone who truly understood and remembered. That led him to found Imerman Angels. Today, Imerman Angels provides that gift for cancer fighters. Imerman Angels introduces each cancer fighter to one survivor who is the same age, same gender and someone who has already faced that particular type of cancer. Come and hear Jonny’s story and learn more about LivingWell’s new Young Adults With Cancer support group starting the second Monday of each month in April from 6:30 – 8:00 pm.

Presented by Christine McMinn, LCPC and Cheri Hunt, LivingWell art instructor
A cancer diagnosis has the potential to shift the way you feel about your body in big and small ways. Not only can a diagnosis cause physical changes within your body, but it can cause emotional changes in the way you feel about your body. In part two of this two-part series, you’ll get in touch with your creative side to express ways to start loving your body again. Registration for both sessions not required.
