info_outlineThis episode of the Cancer Education Series features Certified Caregiver and Coach Kathy Koenig discussing the wonderful help she provides to the friends and family members who loved ones are going through ther cancer journey. These loved ones are often called caregivers, but Kathy prefers the term "care partners," becuase the two people go through the cancer journey together, both serving important, but much different roles. Kathy works at the MercyOne Richard Deming Cancer Center. Her conversation on this podcast is with Dr. Richard Deming himself, who is the medical director of the cancer center and the founder of Above + Beyond Cancer.
