An important message
As we move toward winter and into the flu season, it is especially important this year that we stay particularly careful about any cold or early flu symptoms that you might experience If you have ANY of the following symptoms, we ask that you not attend programs at FCT: sore throat, scratchy throat, headache, runny or stuffy nose, aching body, fever, chills, cough, fatigue, vomiting or diarrhea. Please err on the side of being "overly cautious" when you consider whether to attend an event or group at Facing Cancer Together. We want to remind you all that many of our participants have very suppressed immune systems. If you have any question as to whether you should come, you should opt to stay home. We want to keep our community as free from unnecessary exposure to the flu as we are able.
Thank you in advance for your consideration.
