• WESPARK CANCER SUPPORT CENTER

I started taking yoga at We Spark about a year after I had been diagnosed with Breast Cancer. I feel so comfortable there. Everyone there is so nice and people are made to feel welcome. No judgements are made and there is an upspoken message that I feel there that we all share a common challenge and the same goals.

HELLO, I AM A COUPLE DAYS PAST DUE HOWEVER I HOPE THAT YOU READ MY REVIEW. AFTER MY HUSBAND PAST AWAY FROM BRAIN CANCER 10/22/2007 I WAS REFERRED TO WE SPARK BY A RELATIVE AND I AM SO VERY THANKFUL. I DID AN INTAKE WITH A WONDERFUL AND SUPPORTIVE COUNSELOR & THEN I BEGAN THE EVENING GRIEF SUPPORT GROUP AND THE LEADERSHIP THERE WAS EXCELLENT. I ALSO DID YOGA WITH THE CENTER AND STILL ATTEND DIFFERENT EVENTS. ONE NEEDS SO VERY MUCH THE SUPPORT OF GROUPS AND ORGAN. SUCH AS WE SPARK TO SURVIVE THE INITIAL VERY TOUGH MONTHS OF A GREAT LOSS. ALSO A WONDERFUL CHIGONG THERAPIST HELPED ME LET GO OF MY GRIEF AS WELL. JUST AN AMAZING SUPPORT ORGAN. ONE I ALWAYS REFER OTHERS TO WHO HAVE LOST A LOVED ONE THROUGH CANCER. MY ONLY SADNESS IS I DID NOT KNOW OF WE SPARK CANCER SUPPORT UNITL MY HUSBAND WAS GONE AS I KNOW WHAT A GREAT SUPPORT THE ORGAN. WOULD HAVE BEEN FOR HIM AS WELL. THANK YOU ALL AGAIN SO VERY, VERY MUCH.

As a Cancer Patient I really never realized how helpful a simple visit to WeSpark would change my life. Meeting the sincerity of Tara Shores was amazing. I've always felt that meeting her was a God Send. Through the yoga classes and the fact that I realized they really care made me so happy to be there. Lenora is the greatest assistant they could have there. She is very attentive and helpful. I really go when I do have the chance to and I enjoy every minute of it. I love the yoga instructor, Lisa and everyone there is so nice and friendly. I am so happy to have found out about this Support Group which has indeed changed my life in a very good way since my Cancer Journey.

As a nursing student preparing a presentation on a health topic (I chose cancer), I thought, where would one go -- in the community -- if one needed emotional support for this anxiety- producing diagnosis? In my research, I found WeSPARK, called them explaining my request as to the details of what they were and what they did. They invited me for interviews, tours, and gave me so much information. The staff is phenomenal -- the environment healing. Indoors as well as outdoors. Just beautiful. Their programs are so well thought out and comforting, to those diagnosed, as well as family and friends. I was encouraged to ask questions -- they seemed to have endless patience. What a diamond of an organization to give so much in so many different ways. How comforting it is to me frequently meeting -- or knowing people recently diagnosed, that there is somewhere wonderful I can recommend for them to check out. It is a jewel of a resource, and those who have inspired such a creative healing center most definitely has helped me understand the nature of true caring.

After breat cancer I was feeling very depressed. A friend called to tell me about WeSpark. What a FABULOUS organization! The people are so caring and concerned. The other "members" are supportive sharing their experiences. Going to Wespark is like going home.
