Celebrating Caregivers in Cancer
November 12, 2025, at 12 p.m. EST
Host Rose Gerber, MS, will be joined by Darcie Champagne Wells, the president and CEO of CanCare, a nonprofit that provides support for caregivers of patients with cancer. Rose and Darcie will discuss their various perspectives on caregivers: Rose as a former patient and current director of a patient-centered advocacy network, and Darcie as the head of a national organization caring for the caregivers and as a three-time caregiver herself. They will also discuss resources available to help caregivers emotionally, mentally, and materially as they support their loved ones.
