Cancer Support Community's Lafayette expansion reflects a different approach to recovery care
Briefly

Dexter Louie, an 83-year-old retired cancer surgeon, shares his transformative journey from doctor to patient after being diagnosed with multiple myeloma. Through his experience at the Cancer Support Community (CSC), he found vital emotional support, which he credits for his recovery. Now in remission, Louie gives back by aiding fellow cancer survivors, emphasizing the importance of understanding medical information in their journey. The CSC is also expanding, breaking ground on a $30 million facility to provide broader support and resources for the cancer community, enhancing its role as a crucial lifeline.
Having been a cancer surgeon, and now on the other side, I understand what they do to support you and how important it is.
I'm a participant, but I try to clarify things - it's so easy to get confused, trying to understand what all the doctors and oncologists are saying.
