Cancer and Career
Many women diagnosed with cancer have questions about how their diagnosis and the
treatment to come will affect their ability to work. The fact is, with the many
supportive care treatments available today and with doctors and employers increasingly
willing to work with patients to accommodate work and treatment schedules, many
patients are able to continue to work through treatment.
Women&Cancer is inspired by the stories we have been able to share from
women who have made their career and their cancer diagnosis work together. We know
that each woman facing the question of how to balance a career and a cancer diagnosis
has unique challenges related to her specific diagnosis and treatment plan, and
that it’s not possible in all cases for women to continue to work. But we are dedicated
to sharing stories and strategies to help women who feel they can work create a
plan to balance their work and their treatment.
