"This special retreat offers women a chance to repair their souls, while inspiring them to improve the world around them," says Ann Wolford, executive director of the US Oncology Foundation. "It's also a chance for nurses, social workers and physicians to connect with the needs of patients on a new level, and come back to their jobs rested, inspired and full of fresh ideas on how to improve the lives of cancer patients and their families."

To apply for a space at the Life Beyond Cancer retreat, visit www.usoncologyfoundation.org/lbc. Submission of an application does not guarantee an assigned slot. Selection to attend LBC is highly competitive as there are many more applicants than spaces available.

Life Beyond Cancer is made possible through the generosity of its sponsors. To sponsor the 2009 Life Beyond Cancer 10 year anniversary retreat, fill out the sponsorship form located on the US Oncology Foundation Web site.
