Dear Sisters:
Spring, with a touch of hesitation and gentleness, has finally arrived. It's a season of renewal, the perfect time to sow hope and nourish our souls.
We know that many of our sisters in the group are adept at gardening, skillfully cultivating flowers and vegetables, making their lives vibrant and full of life. Some sisters are also quietly inspired to try planting their own little lives, experiencing the wondrous process from a seed to a touch of green.
Watching them sprout and grow, that quiet yet steadfast power, is itself a unique form of healing.
Therefore, we plan to hold a flower and vegetable seedling exchange and sharing event on May 23rd.
We sincerely invite sisters who are currently cultivating seedlings to bring extra seedlings for exchange and sharing. Sisters who are interested in trying gardening are also welcome to come with anticipation and take a "new life" home.
We look forward to seeing you all with smiles and little seedlings, exchanging spring together on that day.
Thank you all for your continued support and companionship, making this spring even warmer.
Detailed event information will be distributed in early May, so please stay tuned, sisters!
亲爱的姐妹们：
春天，终于带着一点点迟疑和温柔，走到我们身边了，万物复苏的季节，也是最适合播种希望、滋养心灵的时光。
我们知道，群里有很多“绿手指”的姐妹，种花种菜都得心应手，把日子过得生机盎然；也有一些姐妹，正悄悄心动，想尝试亲手种下一份属于自己的小小生命，感受从一粒种子到一抹绿意的奇妙过程。
看着它们一点点发芽、生长，那种安静又坚定的力量，本身就是一种很特别的疗愈
因此，我们计划在 5月23日 举办一场
花苗、菜苗交换分享活动。
在这里诚挚邀请正在育苗的姐妹们，可以多准备一些小苗，届时带来交换与分享；
想尝试种植的姐妹们，也欢迎带着期待来，把一份“新生命”带回家。
期待在那一天，看见你们带着笑容和小苗，一起交换春天
感谢大家一直以来的支持与陪伴，让我们把这个春天，过得更有温暖。
活动具体通知会在五月初分布，姐妹们敬请期待！

【Discussion on Power of Attorney, Wills, and Genetic Probation - Phoenix Month Event Announcement, April 1, 2026】
We all hope to manage our health and property according to our own wishes at all times. But have you ever considered who you would want to handle these matters if you lost your autonomy? When you need help from family and friends, do they have the right to take over your property and arrange your personal care? In the unfortunate event of passing away, what is the probate process? What issues do we need to consider?
Life and death are two major events in life, and death is a sensitive topic. It takes courage to easily and naturally share and discuss our arrangements before and after death.
We hold similar discussions every year to help people peacefully enjoy life after handling their affairs. We are delighted to have Attorney Celia Hu answer our questions.
Attorney Hu is one of the founders of JDC Law LLP, a firm whose practices include family law, estate law, real estate, corporate law, and commercial leasing. Since beginning her practice, Attorney Hu has focused on family and estate law, including will and power of attorney drafting. She helps clients in various situations draft wills and related documents that suit their wishes, accurately protecting their legal rights.
This time, Attorney Hu will introduce:
Outline:
1. What are the typical contents of a will?
2. What are the consequences of not having a will?
3. How is a will drafted?
4. How is an executor chosen?
5. Who can be a beneficiary of a will? 6. What is a Power of Attorney (POA)?
7. What if I have a sole proprietorship?
8. What if I have assets outside of Ontario?
9. Do I need a lawyer to make a will? Are there any other professionals needed?
This is a great opportunity for in-person learning and discussion. Attorney Hu is very caring and understanding of the needs of different individuals. Everyone is welcome to bring their questions for discussion; she will do her best to answer them. We hope all sisters will actively participate and send their questions to Xiaoge as early as possible.
Sisters who wish to participate in this in-person event, please register in the group.
Topic: Discussion on Power of Attorney, Wills, and Probate Inheritance Issues
Speaker: Attorney Hu
Time: Wednesday, April 1, 2026, 7:30pm - 9:00pm
【《委托授权，遗嘱及遗传认证继承问题的讨论》- 2026年4月1号 火凤凰月活动通告】
我们每一个人都希望，无论任何时候都能按照自己的意愿去料理自己的健康和财产两大要事。 可是你是否想过，万一有一天你丧失自主意识的时候，你希望谁来帮你处理这些事宜呢？当你需要家人朋友的帮助时，他们是否有权利接管你的财产和安排你的个人护理所需呢？万一不幸过世， 身后的遗产认证继承程序是怎样的？ 有什么问题我们需要考虑的？
生与死是人生的两件大事，关于死亡更是我们的一个敏感话题，能够轻松自然地和大家一起分享讨论自己的身前、身后的安排是需要有一定的勇气的。
我们每一年都会做类似的主题讨论， 目的是让大家在处理好自己的生后事以后，就可以安心的好好享受当下的生活。 我们很高兴邀请到胡芠芹 Celia Hu律师为我们答疑解惑。
胡律師是 JDC Law LLP 律所的创始人之一，律所业务范围也包括家庭法、遗产法、房屋买卖、公司法、商业租赁等。从业以来，胡律师一直专注于家庭法和遗产法，业务范围包括订立遗嘱和授权书，帮助各种不同情况的客户订立适合他们自己意愿的遗嘱和相关文件，精准地从法律上维护了委托人的合法权益。
这次胡律师将为大家介绍：
内容大纲：
1. 遗嘱一般会有什么内容？
2. 没有遗嘱会有什么结果？
3. 遗嘱具体怎么订立？
4. 遗嘱执行人该怎么选?
5. 谁可以做遗嘱受益人？
6. POA (授权书) 是什么?
7. 有个人企业怎么办？
8. 有安省之外的财产怎么办？
9. 做遗嘱是否需要找律师？是否还需要其他专业人士？
这是一次非常好的线下学习和讨论机会。胡律师非常有爱心，能够理解和体谅不同个体的需求，欢迎大家带着自己的相关问题来互动，她会倾其所有的答疑解惑。希望姐妹们积极参加并尽可能提前把问题发给小格。
愿意参加这次线下活动的姐妹请接龙报名。

Happy Lunar New Year's Day to all my dear sisters!
May you enjoy a happy and healthy new year!
As the first rays of sunlight stream through the window, we welcome the hopeful Year of the Horse. Looking back, we have run through storms; looking forward, we will blossom in the spring sunshine.
In this year symbolizing vitality, I wish every sister: Resilient as a steed, your steps firm even through storms; Bright as spring flowers, growing towards the sun no matter what the years bring.
In the new year, may our check-up reports be full of good news, and may targeted therapy and endocrine therapy protect us like guardians, allowing us to continue hand in hand, shoulder to shoulder, on the road to recovery.
No winter is insurmountable, and no spring will fail to arrive. Wishing everyone a new year free from illness and disaster, endless joy, and a life forever facing the sun!
马年初一，祝所有亲爱的姐妹们新春快乐，马上安康！
当新年的第一缕晨光洒进窗户，我们迎来了充满希望的丙午马年。回首过往，我们曾在风雨中奔跑；展望未来，我们将在春光里绽放。
在这个象征着生命力的年份里，祝愿每一位姐妹：
如骏马般坚韧，哪怕历经风雨，依然脚步铿锵；
如春花般明媚，无论岁月如何，依然向阳生长。
新的一年，愿我们的复查报告全是好消息，愿靶向药和内分泌药像卫士一样守护着我们，让我们继续手牵手、肩并肩，在康复的道路上一路同行。
没有一个冬天不可逾越，没有一个春天不会来临。祝大家新年无病无灾，长乐未央，一生向阳！

Happy Lunar New Year's Eve, my dear sisters!
Today is the last day of the Year of the Snake. Although snow is falling outside, the lights inside are warm. This year, many of us have endured a winter-like trial. The needles that pricked our skin and the marks that scratched our skin caused us pain and fear. But look at this moment, we are still here together, supporting each other. This in itself is the most remarkable victory.
Today, let's temporarily put aside our anxieties about targets and our worries about the future, enjoy a proper reunion dinner, and give our families a good hug. We are each other's "comrades-in-arms" and "warm sunshine."
At this juncture of bidding farewell to the old year and welcoming the new, I want to say to every sister: You've worked hard, you're truly brave! May the ticking of the clock tonight take away all illness and gloom, and may we, in mutual support, welcome a warm and peaceful spring.
PBCC wishes everyone a healthy and peaceful Lunar New Year's Eve! ❤️
亲爱的姐妹们，除夕快乐！
今天是蛇年最后一天，尽管窗外冰雪漫漫，但是屋内灯火暖暖。这一年，我们中的许多人经历了寒冬般的考验，那些扎在身上的针、划过皮肤的痕，都曾让我们痛过、怕过。但请看看此刻，我们依然在这里彼此陪伴，这本身就是最了不起的胜利。
今天，让我们暂时放下对指标的焦虑，放下对未来的担忧，好好吃一口团圆饭，好好抱一抱身边的家人。我们是彼此的“战友”，更是彼此的“暖阳”。
在这个辞旧迎新的关口，我想对每一位姐妹说：你辛苦了，你真的很勇敢！愿今晚时针嘀嗒带走所有的病痛与阴霾，愿我们在彼此的守望中，迎来一个温暖、安稳的春天。
PBCC在这里]恭祝大家除夕安康，岁岁平安！❤️

[Ten Years of Fighting Cancer, Shining Brighter with Yoga - Phoenix PBCC Event Announcement, February 28, 2026]
Sisters, do you still remember the anxiety and unease you felt when you were diagnosed? Did you ever feel weak and exhausted on your treatment journey? Did you yearn to rediscover your former composure and strength, or even to rediscover a more resilient self?
Twelve years ago, Tracy Duan stood at the same crossroads. Three surgeries, chemotherapy, radiotherapy… a ten-year road to recovery, and yoga took her hand, accompanying her step by step out of the mire. Gradually, yoga allowed her to find peace in her breath, rebuild strength in her postures, transform her body from bloated to toned, and her mind from inferiority to composure and confidence.
Today, Tracy not only cultivates and deepens her knowledge in the world of yoga, but also leads the "Phoenix Yoga Sisterhood" in weekly workouts for three consecutive years, taking to the stage at sports meets, and creating her own dance-style yoga. Yoga gave her a second life and made her a yoga teacher in multiple groups.
If you also want to:
* Settle anxiety in your breath
* Awaken your body's potential in stretching
* Rebuild health and beauty through perseverance
* Illuminate each other with your sisters in compassionate light
Welcome to listen to Tracy's story. This is not an ordinary yoga class, but a genuine companionship and testimony. Let's rediscover our own light in yoga, paying tribute to life with every stretch; reshaping ourselves with every breath. Let her selfless sharing ignite a small lamp in your heart. We are here waiting for you to become your own phoenix.
This group activity will combine sharing and discussion. Sisters who are interested are welcome to register. We hope that through this monthly activity, yoga can become one of the effective ways to open up a new self in your recovery life.
Friendly reminder: This activity is purely for sharing. Please consult your doctor before practicing. No matter what stage you are at, there is understanding and embrace here.

【《十年抗癌，因瑜伽更灿烂》- 2026年2月28号 火凤凰PBCC活动通告】
姐妹们，你是否还记得确诊时那个焦虑不安的自己？是否曾在治疗路上感到虚弱与疲惫？是否渴望找回那份曾经的从容与力量甚至是重新发现一个更有心力的自我？
十二年前，Tracy Duan也站在同样的路口。三次手术、化疗、放疗……十年康复长路，是瑜伽牵起了她的手，陪她一步步走出沼泽。渐渐的，瑜伽让她在呼吸中找到了平静，在体式中重建了力量，让身体从臃肿走向紧致，让心灵从自卑走向从容自信。
如今的Tracy，不仅在瑜伽世界里耕耘深造，更连续三年带领“火凤凰瑜伽姐妹团”每周锻炼，登上运动会的舞台，创编属于自己的舞韵瑜伽。瑜伽，给了她第二次生命，并让她成为多个社团的瑜伽老师。
如果你也想：
· 在呼吸中沉淀焦虑
· 在舒展中唤醒身体潜能
· 在坚持中重塑健康与美丽
· 在慈光中与姐妹们彼此照亮
欢迎你来听Tracy的故事。这不是一堂普通的瑜伽课，而是一次真实的陪伴与见证。让我们一起，在瑜伽中找回属于自己的光芒，用每一次伸展向生命致敬；用每一次呼吸，重塑新生。让她的无私分享能为你点燃一盏小小的心灯。我们在这里等你一起，来做自己的火凤凰。
本次小组活动将以分享与座谈讨论结合的方式进行。欢迎感兴趣的姐妹们报名参加，希望通过这次月活动能够让瑜伽成为你康复生活中能打开新我的一个有效方式之一。
温馨提示：本活动纯属分享，后续练习前请咨询医生建议。无论你在哪个阶段，这里都有一份理解与拥抱。

"A Story, a Craft, a Friend, a Sentence, a Book... that Accompanied Me Through Recovery"
— January 10, 2026, Phoenix PBCC Event Announcement 🌸
Give time back to yourself!
On the road to recovery, each of us has silently walked through long nights. Perhaps you knitted under the lamp at dawn, perhaps you soothed your turbulent emotions with a paintbrush, perhaps you stitched and rewrote, again and again, accompanying yourself through those unseen moments.
In the first month of the new year, Phoenix invites you to gather in a different way: no lectures, no learning sessions, no demands to "become better," we simply sit together, see how we gently and tenaciously walked or climbed through that difficult period, and offer some ideas to sisters who are currently undergoing difficult treatment.
🌷 You can brew a cup of tea or coffee, bring your knitting, embroidery, collage, painting, handicrafts, or even just a small bow, a page from a diary, a piece of writing that you've never read aloud. You don't even need to bring anything; just chatting is enough.
Here, we agree: no expertise required, no finished product needed, no need to speak well, no need to explain your wounds… You just need to come, bring yourself.
Because at Phoenix, we firmly believe that recovery is not a solitary journey, but a journey of mutual support and warmth.
This winter, let your story be seen, let your presence be received.
💗 We are waiting for you here. 🌸
Theme: "One who accompanied me through my recovery journey… (a story, a handmade item, a friend, a sentence, a book…)"
Time: Saturday, January 10, 2026, 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm

《陪我走过康复时光的一个……(一个故事、一件手作、一位朋友、一句话、一本书……)》
—— 2026年1月10日 火凤凰 PBCC 活动通告
把时间，轻轻交还给自己！
在康复的路上，我们每个人都曾默默走过很长的夜。也许你在凌晨的灯下编织，也许你用画笔安抚过翻涌的情绪，也许你一针一线、一遍又一遍，陪自己熬过那些无人知晓的时刻。
新的一年的第一个月，火凤凰邀请你换一种方式相聚：不讲座、 不学习、不要求“变得更好”，我们只是围坐在一起，看看彼此是怎样温柔而顽强地走过或者爬过那段艰难的，给正在艰难治疗中的姐妹一些点子。
你可以沏一杯茶，或煮一杯咖啡，带上你的编织、刺绣、拼贴、绘画、手工或只是一个小小的蝴蝶结、一页日记、一段写下却从未读出的文字，甚至什么也不用带，来聊聊天就已经足够。
在这里，我们约定：不需要专业，不需要完成，不需要讲得好，不需要解释自己的伤口……你只需要来，把自己带来。
因为在火凤凰，我们始终相信：康复不是一个人的坚持，而是一群人彼此取暖的旅程。
这个冬天，让你的故事被看见，让你的存在被接住。
我们在这里等你。

【了解加拿大重大疾病保险 — 如何为家人建立经济安全网】
—— 火凤凰PBCC 2025年11月8日 月活动通告
本次月活动讲座由我们群乳癌六年幸存者、资深安省持牌保险经纪 暗香_Jade Yuhua Tao主讲。
不同于一般的保险推介，本次分享暗香将以病友视角出发，从亲身经历谈如何在加拿大医疗体系下，利用**重大疾病保险（Critical Illness Insurance）**为自己与家人建立经济缓冲与信心支撑。
大部分人觉得有OHIP就足够！但现实中医疗费用之外的收入中断、康复期生活支出、家庭负担往往才是最沉重的压力来源。
更重要的是：当我们曾经罹患过癌症或其他重大疾病后，自己往往已无法再购买大病保险。然而，我们仍然可以为先生、孩子或其他家人投保，为家庭建立一道经济防线，减轻未来的经济压力。同时，这也是帮助年轻的成人子女提早树立风险意识，养成良好理财习惯，让他们在年轻健康时就拥有保障和懂得理财重要性——孩子有保障，妈妈更安心。讲座将以浅显易懂、真实可感的方式，带您了解：
■ OHIP之外有哪些费用需要自理？
■ 什么是重大疾病保险？它能在什么情况下提供帮助？
■ 病后还能怎么为家庭规划保障？
这是一场病友之间的真诚交流与双向讨论，希望帮助大家在加拿大的体制下，学会用保险为自己与家人多一份安心。
主题：了解加拿大重大疾病保险 — 从亲历者角度谈如何为自己与家人建立经济安全网

[Understanding Canadian Critical Illness Insurance — How to Build a Financial Safety Net for Your Family]
— PBCC November 8, 2025 Monthly Event Announcement
This month's event seminar will be presented by Jade Yuhua Tao, a six-year breast cancer survivor and senior licensed insurance broker in Ontario.
Unlike typical insurance presentations, Jade will share her personal experience from a patient's perspective, discussing how to utilize **Critical Illness Insurance** within the Canadian healthcare system to build a financial buffer and provide emotional support for yourself and your family.
Most people think that OHIP (Overseas Health Insurance Plan) is sufficient! However, in reality, income interruption beyond medical expenses, living expenses during recovery, and family burdens are often the heaviest sources of stress.
More importantly: After experiencing cancer or other serious illnesses, we are often no longer able to purchase critical illness insurance.
However, we can still insure our spouses, children, or other family members to build a financial safety net for our families and alleviate future financial pressures.
This also helps young adult children develop risk awareness and good financial habits early on, ensuring they have protection and understand the importance of financial management while young and healthy—protection for children brings peace of mind to mothers.
The lecture will use a simple, easy-to-understand, and relatable approach to explain:
■ What expenses besides OHIP need to be covered out of pocket?
■ What is critical illness insurance? In what situations can it help?
■ How can I plan for family protection after illness?
This is a sincere exchange and two-way discussion among patients, hoping to help everyone learn how to use insurance to provide more peace of mind for themselves and their families within the Canadian system.
Topic: Understanding Canadian Critical Illness Insurance — How to Build a Financial Safety Net for Yourself and Your Family from a Survivor's Perspective

In consultation with the Ontario Health Alliance, we have specially prepared a series of lectures on Ontario's public health system for our group members. This is a rare opportunity to gain a comprehensive, unbiased, and misunderstanding-free understanding of the healthcare resources that are so vital to us. PBCC Phoenix Month Event Announcement:
【Do you really understand OHIP? Common Patient Misconceptions and How to Protect Yourself - September 20th and October 11th, 2025 Phoenix PBCC Event Announcement】
This session will be a two-way discussion from the perspective of patient rights, unlike lectures typically given by service providers! Public health covers a vast area (from fetus to death) and is very complex. Due to the extremely limited time of each lecture, it will be conducted in a dialogical format. The content and focus of the discussion will vary depending on the background, experience, and questions of each participant. We hope to understand your experience, listen to your questions, and provide key information and tools.
■ Main content includes:
What does OHIP cover? What doesn't it cover?
How do I find a doctor? What if my English isn't good? How long will it take before my test or surgery?
Have I been overcharged? If so, what should I do?!
Case discussion and information about cataract surgery rights…
What questions do you have?

[Five Secrets to Improving Sleep - PBCC Event Announcement, August 16, 2025]
Insomnia is a common ailment in modern society. For cancer patients, the combined physical and mental stress during and after chemotherapy and radiotherapy is immense. Chronic sleep deprivation, or even insomnia and weakened immunity, exacerbates their physical and mental burden, making understanding and improving sleep a crucial hurdle on the road to recovery. Solving insomnia and boosting immunity are therefore paramount. Ensuring sufficient and effective sleep time and developing good sleep habits are also fundamental to ensuring the effectiveness of other recovery methods.
This month, we invited experienced health sleep coach Nina Nie to share her five secrets to improving sleep. Having struggled with sleep herself, Nina Nie has read over 400 professional books on sleep science, immersing herself in sleep science, functional medicine, epigenetics, and other related fields. Through her own practice, she has summarized a set of effective methods to completely overcome intractable insomnia and gradually restore her health. This time, she will delve into the science of sleep, focusing on its principles and improvement methods, particularly from the perspective of physical structure, lifestyle rhythms, dietary adjustments, and psychological adjustments. By improving sleep quality, she aims to enhance health, reverse disease, and elevate the quality of life.
This group activity will be conducted in a discussion format. Sisters, please prepare your questions for discussion and sharing. As we always emphasize, although our topic this time is sleep issues, we welcome any questions for discussion, and we will do our best to help everyone.
Topic: Five Secrets to Improving Sleep

【《改善睡眠的五大秘籍》- 2025年8月16号 火凤凰PBCC活动通告】
失眠是现代人的通病，而对于癌症患者，常规放化疗期间和治疗后，承受着身体和心灵的双重压力，长期睡眠不足甚至是失眠、免疫力低下让我们的身心雪上加霜，从而使得认识和改善睡眠成了我们康复路上的一个重要关隘。解决失眠问题、提高免疫力就显得尤为重要。保证充足有效的睡眠时间，养成良好的睡眠习惯也是保证其它康复手段有效发挥作用的基础。
这个月，我们请到资深的健康睡眠教练聂小卫分享她改善睡眠的五大秘籍。Nina聂因自身睡眠困扰而饱览400多本睡眠学科专业书籍，潜心钻研睡眠科学、功能医学、表观遗传学等，通过自身实践，总结了一套彻底摆脱顽固性失眠的有效方法，逐步恢复健康。这次她将从身体结构、生活节律、饮食调节，心理调节等等多方面特别是身体结构上深度讲解睡眠科学的规律以及改善方法，通过提高睡眠质量，改善健康，逆转疾病，提升生命品质。
本次小组活动将以座谈讨论的方式进行。姐妹们可以准备好你们的问题，我们一起讨论分享。 就像我们每一次强调的一样， 虽然我们这一次的主题是讨论睡眠问题， 但我们欢迎姐妹们提出任何问题来讨论， 我们会尽我们的努力来帮助到大家。

[ Patient Sharing and Exchange Meeting]PBCC Activity Announcement - June 14, 2025]
It's said that the power of role models is boundless. On the road to recovery, we support each other, using the power of role models to illuminate our journey together.
This month's activity will feature Guo Man, a veteran "Crazy Mom" from Phoenix PBCC, whom many of you are already familiar with. She will share her challenging illness and experiences, her feelings during the illness, and her unique coping strategies. She will also offer personal advice to those recovering from surgery from the perspective of a rehabilitation therapist (Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner, acupuncturist, massage therapist). We believe newcomers will find some relief from anxiety through Crazy Mom's sharing. Because no matter how difficult things are, can they be as difficult as hers...?
Crazy Mom Guo Man is a 24-year survivor of triple-negative breast cancer. From an ordinary breast cancer patient, she endured multiple severe illnesses, surgeries, and a difficult and challenging life, ultimately growing into a trusted therapist who effectively helps others overcome their difficulties. Surviving 24 years of hardship is already legendary; the comeback after overcoming adversity to become a survivor and a true survivor—the wisdom forged through hardship and suffering will surely bring you unique insights and strength.
Please set aside the evening of June 14th for us to meet online. If you have any stories or questions about treatment and recovery, please prepare them and bring them to Zoom to share and discuss them together.

这一期月活动我们将请很多姐妹们都已经熟知的资深火凤凰疯妈郭曼介绍一下她多舛的病况和经历，分享病期的感受和她不一样的应对策略，同时她也会以一个康复治疗师(中医师、针灸师、推拿师)的角度给手术康复期的姐妹们一些个人建议。相信新进来的姐妹们一定能从疯妈的分享里释放一些焦虑。因为再难能有她难吗……
疯妈郭曼是罹患三阴乳腺癌24年的幸存者。她从一名普通乳癌患者历经多次严重病痛和手术以及蹉跎窘迫的生活淬炼，最终成长为一名受人信赖的为他人有效排忧解难的治疗师。艰难幸存24年已经是传奇，绝地求生后反击凤化成为生活的强者，个中艰辛和苦难成就的智慧之光一定会给大家带来不一样的思考和力量。
请大家留出来6月14日的晚上，让我们相聚在云端，如果你有一些治疗和康复的故事和问题，也可以准备好，带到Zoom里来畅所欲言，一起面对、分享和探讨

[Post-Breast Cancer Protection Products Lecture] – Notice for PBCC Event on April 12, 2025
Illness changes our health, and surgery leaves us with physical scars... but it doesn't change our love for life or our pursuit of beauty. After being diagnosed with breast cancer, many of us rely on prosthetic breasts to maintain our feminine beauty and on compression sleeves to alleviate the discomfort caused by lymphatic blockage after surgery. What should we consider when wearing prosthetic breasts while swimming or exercising? How do we choose these highly specific personal products? What are their functions, and how should we use and maintain them?
Considering that we have many new members in the group recently, and many survivors still lack comprehensive knowledge about these personal care items, for April's monthly event, we have invited Sandy, an expert in breast cancer support products, to give us a talk on how to maintain beauty after breast cancer surgery!
Sandy's company has been serving breast cancer patients in Canada for 40 years and has extensive professional experience. They also collaborate with the Canadian Cancer Society and have participated in and initiated many breast cancer charity events. Sandy is also a loyal participant in CIBC's Run for the Cure.
The lecture will cover the following topics:
Introduction to different types of breast surgeries, including partial mastectomy, full mastectomy, reconstruction, etc., and the products available at different stages of recovery.
Financial and community support resources.
How to find the right bra for yourself.
The difference between post-mastectomy bras and regular bras.
Recovery timelines and the use of recovery vests and bras.
A demonstration of various types of bras and how to use them with prosthetics.
Care and cleaning instructions.
An introduction to various other products.
Important considerations when wearing a breast prosthesis and bra.
PBCC is dedicated to providing the most practical and relevant discussions for breast cancer patients and survivors. This is a new topic, and we hope this lecture will help us gain a thorough understanding of these everyday essentials. Since Sandy is Western and does not speak Mandarin, we would like to express special thanks to Beijing for providing full translation for the event.
Given the more demonstrative nature of this lecture and the personal topic involved, and to allow for more interaction and mutual understanding among the sisters, we will hold this lecture offline. The event is limited to 25 people, so we hope for your understanding and encourage you to sign up as soon as possible!

【《乳癌术后防护用品讲座》- 2025年4月12号 火凤凰PBCC活动通告】
疾病改变了我们的健康状况，手术让我们身体有缺失……但是，它改变不了我们对生活的热爱和对美的追求。罹患乳癌后，我们很多人都需要靠义乳来维持我们女性的美、靠压力袖来缓解因为手术导致的淋巴回流受阻的困扰，我们运动如游泳等佩戴义乳都要注意什么？……我们怎样选择这些针对性很强的个人用品呢？这些用品都有哪些功能，我们又该如何使用和保养？……
考虑到最近群里进来了很多新病友，同时也有很多幸存者对这些隐私用品的了解也不够全面，四月的月活动我们专门请到了拥有专业乳癌辅助用品经验的Sandy给我们讲一讲乳癌术后保持美丽的那些事！
主讲人Sandy非常热心，她所在的公司在加拿大服务乳癌患者40年，具有专业的服务经验，与加拿大癌症协会也有合作，参与和发起过很多乳癌公益活动，也是CIBC义跑的忠实参与者。
本次讲座内容如下：
1、不同类型的乳房手术包括局切、全切、重建等等、不同愈合阶段的可用产品介绍
2、财务和社区支持介绍
3、如何找到适合自己的胸罩
4、乳房切除胸罩与普通胸罩有何不同
5、恢复时间表和恢复吊带背心和胸罩
6、展示各种类型的胸罩以及假体如何与胸罩配合使用
7、护理和清洗
8、各种不同用品的使用介绍
9、佩戴乳房假体和胸罩时需要注意什么
PBCC一直致力于为乳癌患者和幸存者提供最实在、最贴合大家需求的话题讨论。这是一个全新的话题，希望通过这次讲座让我们对这个每天都要用的好朋友有一个全面的认识。这次活动特别感谢Beijing担岗全程翻译。
由于讲座的展示性较强，同时话题比较私密，更为了群里姐妹们能够多一些相互了解，增进友情，这次讲座我们采用线下方式。活动人数依然有25人的限制，希望大家理解和尽快报名！

[Support Group Sharing Session] –Notice for PBCC Event on Mar 15, 2025
The cold March in Toronto cannot stop us from getting closer and warming each other's hearts. The first group sharing and exchange session of 2025 is here! [Waddle][Waddle][Waddle]
Mutual support and helping each other move forward has always been the core principle of our Phoenix Fire family. In these sessions, members come together to share experiences, exchange insights, and spark wisdom, ensuring that we are never alone on our journey to recovery. [Hug][Shake]
In this session, we are thrilled to have Liuyang, who has been in recovery for eight years, share her journey. She will talk about how she continued to work full-time during her treatment and recovery period while staying true to her heart and interests. Through various approaches, she expanded her life and enriched her recovery journey. At the same time, she has been gently leading and inspiring the sisters in the West, step by step, toward a life of happiness and health. 👯
Another inspirational member sharing is Tiantian, a long-time friend and a true legend. She will share her miraculous story of recovery after doctors gave her only 8-12 months to live and included her in the palliative care program.

[Discussion on Taxes and Benefits You Need to Know After Being Diagnosed with Breast Cancer] –Notice for PBCC Event on Feb 8, 2025
From the day we are diagnosed with breast cancer, our lives undergo many changes and face numerous challenges. The government support and benefits available to cancer patients vary depending on the severity of the illness, as different tax and welfare policies apply.
This month, we are fortunate to have the renowned Canadian Chartered Professional Accountant, Chartered Financial Analyst, Trust and Estate Executor, Insurance Broker, and Mortgage Expert, Carol Dai (MBA CPA/CMA CFA TEP), a partner at Mingxin Accounting Firm and Vice President of Hongtai Wealth Management Center, who will share a new perspective on the policies and support available to breast cancer patients. This will be the first time our group has touched on this topic.
Carol Dai is a professional with a heart for public service. Not only did she help Phoenix Fire register the PBCC non-profit organization free of charge, but she also donated the first charitable fund after PBCC's establishment. We sincerely thank her for taking time out of her busy schedule while visiting family back in China during the Chinese New Year holiday to offer us this public lecture. The specific topics of the lecture are as follows:
• When does a breast cancer patient meet the definition of a person with a disability?
• What tax exemptions are available to people with disabilities in Canada?
• What benefits are available to people with disabilities in Canada?
• How can you apply for these tax exemptions and benefits?
• How can a trust set up for people with disabilities be used for tax savings?
• Under what circumstances can a breast cancer patient claim disability insurance from group insurance?
• Under what circumstances can a breast cancer patient claim critical illness insurance?
Friendly Reminder :
On Saturday, February 8, from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM, we will hold this month’s event via Zoom. Please prepare your questions and consult with Carol Dai during the session. We hope everyone will take advantage of this valuable learning opportunity and actively sign up to attend.

According to statistics, breast cancer patients who undergo surgery and have lymph nodes removed face a one-third chance of developing lymphedema, regardless of how many lymph nodes were taken. So, what exactly is lymphedema, and how can it be prevented? This has become an important topic that we must learn about.
For those in the group who have concerns about lymphedema, you know how difficult it is to find a Mandarin-speaking ADP-registered lymphedema therapist in Toronto. This time, we’ve finally found a compassionate professional who fits this description. Dr. Amy Dai, a graduate of Liaoning University of Traditional Chinese Medicine with a background in acupuncture and tuina, is a registered massage therapist, registered traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, and also an ADP-registered lymphedema therapist. We are grateful that she has taken the time from her busy schedule to offer this public lecture. The details of the lecture are as follows:
Self-introduction
Introduction to the lymphatic system
Causes of lymphedema and the potential consequences of not treating it in time
Contraindications for lymphatic drainage therapy

"Members Sharing and Communication Meeting" - Notice for PBCC Event on October 12, 2024
Toronto's beautiful autumn has arrived, and before winter sets in, our members sharing and communication meeting is here! The principle of our PBCC family has always been to support each other and move forward together. This offline gathering will allow members to share experiences, exchange insights, and spark wisdom, so we don't feel alone on the road to recovery!
In this session, we will invite a legendary figure among us to share her miraculous comeback story. Diagnosed with only 8-12 months to live and placed in hospice care, they experienced a stunning revival four months later. Her journey, filled with ups and downs, showcases a powerful and optimistic mindset that transformed challenges into the vibrant blooming of a resilient rose.
We will also hear from the "Triple Negative Sisters," who have been in recovery for over 12 years. Despite friends hesitating to share the details of cancer cell type and stage,she bravely forged her own path, striving to broaden the quality of life while letting go of the struggle for its length.
As one group member wisely said:The clouds can never block the sun; everything will pass. The days ahead will be filled with sunshine.
For our October event, Tiantian and XiaoGe will share their stories. Please mark October 12 on your calendars!
Sisters attending the event, if you have any treatment or recovery stories or questions, feel free to prepare them for our discussion and sharing.

"Exercise for Fitness, Boosting Immunity, and Effectively Building Muscle while Losing Weight" - PBCC September Monthly Offline Event Notice
Exercise is the source of all life; more exercise means less illness. In middle age, especially after undergoing cancer surgery and chemotherapy, many of us need to take medication long-term. These treatments accelerate bone loss, muscle wasting, and slowed metabolism, while blood sugar and cholesterol levels gradually rise. Our group especially needs exercise to maintain health, and muscle building is a crucial part of staying healthy. Increased muscle mass enhances metabolism, raises body temperature, and boosts immunity.
For our Phoenix group's September activity, we are excited to invite Betty, the captain of Toronto Phoenix Dragon Boat Team, to share her experiences with fitness before and after and provide some simple and effective exercise methods for increasing muscle, eliminating excess fat, and enhancing immunity. We encourage all sisters to actively participate. Please wear comfortable clothing and shoes suitable for exercise. Friends interested in joining are welcome to sign up in the comments.
All participants are considered to acknowledge and take responsibility for their own safety in relation to the event.

“I was covered in wounds, but wings grew out of my wounds!" In the Greater Toronto Area, there is a Phoenix Dragon Boat Team composed of more than 30 Chinese breast cancer survivors.

“Discussion on Power of Attorney, Wills, and Inheritance Certification Issues" - Phoenix August Monthly Event Notice
We all hope that, at any time, we can manage our health and assets according to our own wishes. But have you ever considered who you would want to handle these matters for you if you were to lose your autonomy one day? When you need help from family and friends, do they have the legal right to manage your assets and arrange your personal care? And if you pass away, what is the procedure for inheritance certification? What issues do we need to consider?
Life and death are two major aspects of our lives, and death is a particularly sensitive topic. It takes courage to openly and naturally share and discuss arrangements for both before and after one's death.
Every year, we hold discussions on similar topics with the goal of ensuring that once you have arranged your affairs, you can focus on enjoying the present. We are pleased to invite attorney Celia Hu to answer your questions.
Attorney Hu is one of the founders of JDC Law LLP, which handles a range of services including family law, estate law, real estate transactions, corporate law, and commercial leasing. Throughout her career, Attorney Hu has specialized in family and estate law, focusing on drafting wills and powers of attorney, and helping clients of various situations to create documents that reflect their wishes and protect their legal rights.
In this seminar, Attorney Hu will cover:
Outline of Topics:
What is typically included in a will?
What are the consequences of not having a will?
How is a will properly drafted?
How should an executor be chosen?
Who can be a beneficiary of a will?
What is a Power of Attorney (POA)?
What if you have a personal business?
What if you have assets outside of Ontario?
Do you need a lawyer to draft a will, and are other professionals needed?
This is an excellent opportunity for offline learning and discussion. Attorney Hu is very compassionate and understands the needs of different individuals. You are encouraged to bring your questions and interact with her, as she will do her best to provide answers. We hope that everyone will actively participate and, if possible, send their questions to Jenny and Xiao Ge in advance. Those wishing to attend this offline event should sign up in the chain.
All participants are considered to acknowledge and take responsibility for their own safety in relation to the event.
【《委托授权，遗嘱及遗传认证继承问题的讨论》- 火凤凰八月月活动通告】
我们每一个人都希望，无论任何时候都能按照自己的意愿去料理自己的健康和财产两大要事。 可是你是否想过，万一有一天你丧失自主意识的时候，你希望谁来帮你处理这些事宜呢？当你需要家人朋友的帮助时，他们是否有权利接管你的财产和安排你的个人护理所需呢？万一不幸过世， 身后的遗产认证继承程序是怎样的？ 有什么问题我们需要考虑的？
生与死是人生的两件大事，关于死亡更是我们的一个敏感话题，能够轻松自然地和大家一起分享讨论自己的身前、身后的安排是需要有一定的勇气的。
我们每一年都会做类似的主题讨论， 目的是让大家在处理好自己的生后事以后，就可以安心的好好享受当下的生活。 我们很高兴邀请到胡芠芹 Celia Hu律师为我们答疑解惑。
胡律師是 JDC Law LLP 律所的创始人之一，律所业务范围也包括家庭法、遗产法、房屋买卖、公司法、商业租赁等。从业以来，胡律师一直专注于家庭法和遗产法，业务范围包括订立遗嘱和授权书，帮助各种不同情况的客户订立适合他们自己意愿的遗嘱和相关文件，精准地从法律上维护了委托人的合法权益。
这次胡律师将为大家介绍：
1. 遗嘱一般会有什么内容？2. 没有遗嘱会有什么结果？3. 遗嘱具体怎么订立？4. 遗嘱执行人该怎么选?5. 谁可以做遗嘱受益人？6. POA (授权书) 是什么?7. 有个人企业怎么办？8. 有安省之外的财产怎么办？9. 做遗嘱是否需要找律师？是否还需要其他专业人士？
这是一次非常好的线下学习和讨论机会。胡律师非常有爱心，能够理解和体谅不同个体的需求，欢迎大家带着自己的相关问题来互动，她会倾其所有的答疑解惑。希望姐妹们积极参加并尽可能提前把问题发给Jenny和小格。 愿意参加这次线下活动的姐妹请接龙报名。 前来参加本次活动的所有人均视为认同与活动相关的安全责任自行负责。

【《病友分享交流会》- 2024年6月13号 火凤凰小组活动通告】
时间飞逝， 一晃今年已经进入了第六个月了。 我们小组的惯
例， 每隔几个月我们会安排一次病友之间的分享和互助活动。 非常感谢我们小组的Cathy (小妹- lucky)愿意主持这一次的病友分享活动。 Cathy 是拥有33年多学科护理经验的老护士，从国内到国外，来加后一直在多伦多UHN(TGH, TWH)工作， 自从她自己生病后， 在她治疗还没结束就一直热心地用自己多年的医护知识和经验帮助群里的姐妹们解答各种各样的问题。借此次活动，我们可以集中回答姐妹们的问题。重点从以下三个方面讨论：
1）如何做好患乳腺癌之后不同阶段的心理调整和适应，（从确定诊断，到接受治疗以及后续顺利康复）； 如何解压？
2）在不同阶段治疗中怎样预防并发症发生；一旦出现并发症应如何处理；以及不同阶段饮食，锻炼的注意事项，以确保姐妹们平安顺利的康复，早日回归正常的工作及生活状态；
3）做完治疗后多久应该follow up, 应该做哪些项目检查? 每次见医生应该问哪些问题 （ 不同的治疗阶段以及在Emergency room，和见家庭医生 等等 ）

[Cancer Support Group Sharing and Exchange Meeting] - Announcement for June 13, 2024
Time flies, and we are already into the sixth month of the year. As per our group's tradition, we arrange a sharing and mutual support activity among patients every few months. We are very grateful that our group's Cathy (Xiaomei - lucky) is willing to host this patient sharing activity. Cathy is an experienced nurse with over 33 years of multidisciplinary nursing experience, both domestically and internationally. Since coming to Canada, she has been working at UHN (TGH, TWH) in Toronto. Even before completing her own treatment, she has been enthusiastically using her extensive medical knowledge and experience to help answer various questions from the sisters in the group. Through this activity, we can collectively address the sisters' questions and focus on the following three aspects:
How to mentally adjust and adapt at different stages after being diagnosed with breast cancer (from diagnosis to treatment and subsequent smooth recovery); and how to relieve stress?
How to prevent complications during different stages of treatment; how to handle complications if they occur; and what dietary and exercise precautions should be taken at different stages to ensure a safe and smooth recovery and an early return to normal work and life.
How long after treatment should follow-up be done, and what tests should be conducted? What questions should be asked at each doctor's visit (different treatment stages, in the Emergency Room, and when seeing the family doctor, etc.)?
We hope that sisters who wish to participate in the activity can prepare your questions so we can discuss and share together. If time permits, we will also discuss the viewpoints and opinions from the book Everyone's Battle. Each sister in this group has gone through her own battle, each displaying different ways of coping and overcoming challenges! Interested friends are welcome to sign up for the event.

We all know how difficult it is to see an oncologist and discuss our condition. This month, our Phoenix group members are in luck. Thanks to a friend's introduction, we have invited an experienced oncologist, Dr. Zhang, to join our May event. Dr. Zhang will discuss post-surgery and post-chemotherapy lifestyle habits, dietary adjustments, and how to prevent recurrence and metastasis of breast cancer.
Before moving abroad, Dr. Zhang worked clinically at the Peking University Cancer Institute. In 1985, during an international oncology conference, she was invited and sponsored by a Canadian cancer hospital and the Cancer Foundation to come to Toronto to collaborate on research into the causes of breast and colon cancer. After graduating from the University of Toronto Medical School, she worked as a research physician in the breast cancer team at the renowned Ludwig Institute led by Dr. Bruce. Dr. Zhang has over forty years of experience in breast cancer research and treatment.
We are very grateful that Dr. Zhang is willing to take time out of her busy schedule to support us and answer our questions. This group activity will be conducted in a discussion format.

2023, December 2nd: Phoenix 10th Anniversary Celebration Speech
用生命影响生命 ⁃ 火凤凰成立10周年庆典致辞
用生命影响生命 - 泰戈尔
把自己活成一道光，因为你不知道， 谁会借着你的光， 走出了黑暗。
请保持心中的善良， 因为你不知道， 谁会借着你的善良， 走出了绝望。
请保持心中的信仰， 因为你不知道， 谁会借着你的信仰， 走出了迷茫。
请相信自己的力量， 因为你不知道， 谁会因为相信你， 开始相信了自己。
愿我们每一个人都能活成一束光， 绽放出所有的美好。
泰格尔的这首诗正是我们火凤凰的写照。 回想我们火凤凰乳癌支持小组成立10年来的历程， 我们的姐妹们正是借着前辈的光从自己刚生病时的无助彷徨中走了出来； 借着你们的鼓励， 接受了现实，完成了治疗； 借着对你们的信任，也相信了自己的力量， 同时活成了一束光，再去照亮别人，这就是我们小组的传承。 我们小组从10年前的10个人发展到现在的370多位乳癌患者。
这10年来，我们不但坚持了每月一次的主题讨论， 还陆续组织了Hiking组，合唱团，龙舟队，读书会，绘画组，瑜伽组，等兴趣小组。 同时， 我们的CIBC义跑队还连续六年为加拿大癌症协会的乳癌研究募集了近23万的研究经费。 这10年来也正是因着所有义工们的坚持和努力， 火凤凰小组才能坚持和发展到今天。 非常感谢这10年来所有做过义工的姐妹们，你们就是泰戈尔所说的“把自己活成一道光”的人，你们不但成就了自己， 也照亮了别人
Influencing Lives with Life – Speech at the 10th Anniversary Celebration of Phoenix Clinic
Influencing Lives with Life – Tagore
Live your life as a light, for you never know who will find their way out of darkness through your light.
Keep kindness in your heart, for you never know who will find their way out of despair through your kindness.
Keep faith in your heart, for you never know who will find their way out of confusion through your faith.
Believe in your own strength, for you never know who will begin to believe in themselves because they believe in you.
May each of us live as a beam of light, radiating all that is beautiful.
This poem by Tagore perfectly encapsulates the spirit of Phoenix Clinic. Reflecting on the past 10 years of our Phoenix Breast Cancer Support Group, our sisters have emerged from the helplessness and confusion of their initial illness by the light of our predecessors; with your encouragement, they accepted reality and completed treatment; and with their trust in you, they have also believed in their own strength, becoming a beam of light themselves to illuminate others. This is the legacy of our group. Our group has grown from 10 people 10 years ago to over 370 breast cancer patients today.
Over the past 10 years, we have not only maintained monthly themed discussions, but also organized various interest groups such as a hiking group, choir, dragon boat team, book club, painting group, and yoga group. Meanwhile, our CIBC volunteer running team has raised nearly $230,000 in research funding for the Canadian Cancer Society's breast cancer research for six consecutive years. It is precisely because of the perseverance and hard work of all our volunteers that the Phoenix Group has been able to persist and grow to where it is today. A huge thank you to all the sisters who have volunteered over the past 10 years; you are the people Tagore described as "living yourselves as a light," you have not only achieved success for yourselves, but also illuminated the lives of others.

After getting cancer, cancer patients not only have to endure physical pain, but also mental and ideological torture. Once they have a headache, fever, or physical discomfort, the first thing they think about is "Is it relapsed?" Once a relapse is diagnosed, many of them suffer a mental breakdown even before further treatment is initiated. Many cancer patients die not from illness, but from fear. Therefore, cancer patients especially need a strong heart to face the physical pain, to face the mental torture, to face the kind care of relatives and friends around them, and to face the increasingly approaching death.
The Canada Stretching Therapy Association provides a free pain-relieving exercise stretching class especially for our breast cancer patients. The instructor is Yuki Cheng, who explains in Cantonese.

【《生病以后如何面对癌症逆境》- 2023年11月16号 火凤凰病友分享会通告】
得了癌症以后，癌症患者不但要经受身体上的痛苦，还要经受精神上思想上的煎熬，一旦有个头疼脑热， 身体不适，他们首先想到的是“是否复发了？ ”。 而一旦确诊复发，即使还没有开始进一步治疗， 他们其中的很多人就已经精神崩溃了。 很多癌症患者死亡不是病死的，而是吓死的。所以癌症患者特别需要一颗强大的内心去面对身体上的痛苦，去面对精神上的煎熬，去面对周围亲朋好友的善意关怀， 去面对日益渐近的死亡。
强大的内心不是一天成就的，他需要日积月累的培养，而在这培养的过程中，我们学会了如何善待自己，如何保护自己，如何提升自己，而这一切将会起到预防或延长复发转移的作用，即使这一天来临，我们也将有一颗强大的内心去面对它。
这一次，我们将与姐妹们分享讨论我们可以做一些什么事情来面对癌症的逆境，来培养强大的内心。 这是一次非常好的线下相互认识，相互支持，抱团取暖的机会， 希望姐妹们积极参加。 愿意参加这次线下活动的姐妹请接龙报名。
"How to Face Cancer Adversity After Diagnosis" - Fire Phoenix Patient Sharing Meeting Notice
After being diagnosed with cancer, patients not only endure physical pain but also undergo mental and emotional torment. Whenever they experience any minor discomfort, their first thought is, "Is it a recurrence?" Even before further treatment begins, many patients may already suffer from mental collapse upon confirmation of a recurrence. Many cancer patients do not die from the disease itself but from fear. Therefore, cancer patients especially need a strong mindset to face physical pain, mental anguish, the kind-hearted concern of family and friends, and the approach of death.
A strong mindset is not achieved in a day; it requires gradual cultivation. Through this process, we learn how to treat ourselves kindly, protect ourselves, and improve ourselves. All of this can help prevent or delay recurrence and metastasis. Even if that day arrives, we will have the inner strength to face it.
In this session, we will share and discuss what we can do to confront cancer adversity and cultivate a strong mindset. This is a great opportunity for offline interaction, mutual support, and warming each other’s spirits. We hope the sisters will actively participate. Sisters who wish to join this offline event, please sign up in the thread.

[How to Improve Sleep Problems - September 14, 2023 Phoenix September Activity Announcement]【《如何改善睡眠问题》- 2023年9月14号 火凤凰九月份活动通告】
主讲： 小格 Helen
时间： 2023年9月14号 星期四 上午10:30 am - 12:30 pm

Insomnia is a common problem in modern society. For cancer patients, the dual pressures of physical and mental strain during and after conventional chemotherapy and radiotherapy are immense. Chronic sleep deprivation, or even insomnia and weakened immunity, further exacerbate their physical and mental burden, making sleep improvement a crucial hurdle on the road to recovery. Therefore, addressing insomnia and boosting immunity are paramount. Ensuring sufficient and effective sleep time and developing good sleep habits are also fundamental to ensuring the effectiveness of other recovery methods.
Many conventional methods exist for improving sleep, but for cancer patients already burdened by treatment, we cannot rely on various seemingly quick-fix medications and health supplements that add to the body's strain. We need to seek methods that allow us to sleep peacefully without causing new health problems, enabling our bodies and minds to truly rest and repair.
This group activity will be conducted in a discussion format. Sisters, please prepare your questions, and we will discuss and share them together. As we have always emphasized, although our topic today is sleep, we welcome any questions for discussion, and we will do our best to help everyone.
失眠是现代人的通病，而对于癌症患者，常规放化疗期间和治疗后，承受着身体和心灵的双重压力，长期睡眠不足甚至是失眠、免疫力低下让我们的身心雪上加霜，从而使得改善睡眠成了我们康复路上的一个重要关隘。解决失眠问题、提高免疫力就显得尤为重要。保证充足有效的睡眠时间，养成良好的睡眠习惯也是保证其它康复手段有效发挥作用的基础。
常规调理改善睡眠问题的方法很多，对于饱受治疗摧残的癌症患者，我们不能使用给身体增加负担的各种看似既刻见效的各种药品、保健品等等方法了。我们要寻求一些既能让我们安然入眠，又不担心身体出现由此导致新问题的，让身心真能得到休息、修复的方法。
本次小组活动将以座谈讨论的方式进行。姐妹们可以准备好你们的问题，我们一起讨论分享。 就像我们每一次强调的一样， 虽然我们这一次的主题是讨论睡眠问题， 但我们欢迎姐妹们提出任何问题来讨论， 我们会尽我们的努力来帮助到大家。

The dazzling spring flowers of the past, the wonderful prosperity of the past, and the exciting hustle and bustle have ignited our passionate feelings for half a lifetime. Now, after going through many difficulties and being riddled with wounds both physically and mentally, I have discovered that those years of mixed joy and sorrow can be carefully collected, and I can pick a fragrant bookmark to put in my heart.
