Two Hundred Guests Celebrate Cancer Survivors Day with RWJ Hamilton

Two hundred guests returned to the Cancer Institute of New Jersey Hamilton for Cancer Survivors Day. The event, held June 4, provided an opportunity to embrace the victory of survival while demonstrating that life after a cancer diagnosis can be a reality. The National Cancer Survivors Day Foundation defines a "survivor" as anyone living with a history of cancer - from the moment of diagnosis through the remainder of life.
