The Definition Of A Cancer Survivor

The American Cancer Society has chosen to adopt the broadest definition possible for a cancer survivor - that being all those who choose to define themselves as survivors, from the time of their diagnosis through the balance of life.  We recognize the significant role and interest that loved ones, friends, and health care professionals play in the lives of cancer survivors.  We acknowledge that they, too, feel the effects of the cancer experience in many similar ways and may also think of themselves as survivors.  It is our desire to be as inclusive as possible to all those touched by cancer, and we welcome their voices and perspectives within survivorship.
