ABOUT US

Living With Cancer was established by Belinda Wagner in 2017, after she was diagnosed with a rare cancer.

She wanted to create a platform where people who were impacted by cancer could share their experiences, inspire hope, gain courage and support each other.

The Living With Cancer platform is for people diagnosed with any type of cancer and at any stage of their journey.

It is a platform where you can:

Connect with other members

Share your experience

Gain emotional support

Find information

Ask questions

Get advise on diet, exercise and ways to cope

 

Cancer is a fast-growing priority around the world. In South Africa, it is estimated that the annual incidence of cancer cases will double from about 62 000 in 2019 to approximately 121 000 in 2030.¹ Advances in cancer research, detection, and treatment show that cancer can be beaten and should not be seen as a death sentence. However, I believe that people who are impacted by cancer must also have a place to go where they can learn about their diagnosis and have access to a safe network to share their emotions and experiences, support each other, and gain courage and inspire hope. That’s my goal with Living With Cancer.”
