INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana – Treating cancer can be
a rocky ride of radiation treatments, chemotherapy and surgeries. And returning
to a normal life after the battle presents other challenges.
Franciscan St. Francis Health and Cancer
Support Community Central Indiana are introducing Moving Beyond, a cancer survivorship program. It blends a unique
and holistic approach, combining physical, emotional, mental and spiritual
health components for survivors, loved ones and caregivers.
Moving Beyond is a free 12-week
program and offers classes beginning in March and continuing throughout the
year. They will be held in the Cancer Center’s second floor conference rooms at
