Hey there - we are Kari and Whitney, and we are the founders of Field Guides to Cancer Care.
Field Guides to Cancer Care is a company whose roots grew out of the cancer patient’s need for honest and reliable answers to their questions. As any patient knows, there are so many questions throughout the process of diagnosis and treatment for cancer. Even after cancer treatment - questions remain or new ones arise. We know finding the answers isn’t always easy. We recognize that the medical world has its own particular language and process. Our goal is to help guide patients through the complex world of cancer care and make the process a bit easier to navigate.
Our Field Guides
Our Field Guides are designed to support you during your treatment journey. We have collated important information that is key to managing your body and your mind during cancer treatment.
Each Field Guide is available as a downloadable ebook, and will provide you with information on the following:
