A Story of Gratitude
In Their Own Words (Camp Wieser Participants and Partners)
Gave Us The Gift of Hope, Joy and Camaraderie
“Camp Wieser gave my family an opportunity to fully express what it is like to battle cancer as a family unit without feeling like we are dealing with a private, heavy burden. I think this was especially true for my son who spent a great deal of time between activities hanging out with other teens. This made me feel overjoyed because he has had a really hard time relating to kids at school since all this cancer drama began. The entire weekend made us feel supported and free to enjoy ourselves which isn’t something that comes easy when you are typically dealing with being poked and prodded and feeling anxiety about what might be around the corner. Camp Wieser gave us the gift of hope, joy and camaraderie that we will carry with us through the next leg of this journey with cancer.”
