ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
This project would not be possible without the bravery and openness of the cancer patients and survivors and health care providers who shared their personal stories and beliefs about cancer. We especially acknowledge the those that have passed on since sharing their stories. It is our collective honour to carry your stories forward so that others may learn from your experiences. We would also like to express our greatest appreciation of all the communities and organizations that made this work possible.
