Thanks Mary for “getting the word out” about ThyCa’s 13th International Thyroid Cancer Survivors’ Conference. This is a wonderful event whether you are new to thyroid cancer or an old-timer. You get so much information and support from these conferences that you come away from them an informed patient. The physician speakers use language everyone can understand and are more than happy to answer questions. Everyone is so supportive. It is something you don’t want to miss if you have dealt with or are dealing with thyroid cancer. Hope to see you there!
