   Reprise- Psycho Oncology

   In this reprise episode, we talk about a foundational element of the caregiving journey.  Often the medical team, while doing a great job treating your loved one, can miss the mark when  it comes to the emotional and psychological 'pain points' of the journey.  Psycho-oncology addresses those emotional and psychological factors, affecting your loved one, you as acregiver, and perghaps other family members close to the situation. I  think you will find this informative, and extremely helpful.
