A Story of Gratitude
In Their Own Words (Camp Wieser Participants and Partners)
Found Out I Like Camping After All!
“You don’t know how much you need something like Camp Wieser until you go there. I am not a camper, and would typically not be interested in participating in an activity like this. My son and husband, though, really wanted to go. As they have done so much for me, I wanted to do something for them. They enjoyed themselves so much and were really willing to step outside their comfort zones. What I wasn’t expecting was how much I would enjoy the Camp. While the pampering of the spa was a welcomed treat, it was the adventure part of Camp that was so much for me. It’s a reminder of how much fun it is to be alive. My cancer diagnosis reminded me to appreciate my family and all the little things in life, but Camp Wieser reminded me that the exhilaration of new experiences is important, too.”
