Deneski to
speak at Living with Cancer meeting
Hank Deneski will speak to the Living with Cancer group on Thursday,
March 2, 2017 at 7 pm at Wayne Health Care in the Board Room located
down past the lab to the left at the end of the hall. Hank is
currently featured in the Head and Neck Cancer Alliance first quarter
2017 newsletter and also selected as one of 28 cancer survivors
included the first edition of “Heroes of Hope” book compiled and
published by the Academy of Oncology Nurse and Patient
Navigators. They publish “CONQUER,” the patient voice magazine
(www.conquer-magazine.com) which is free.
Hank is an 11-year survivor of stage IV inoperable squamous cell
carcinoma on the base of his tongue, and has an urgent message for
others diagnosed with an oral, head and/or neck cancer, “Take control
or be controlled.”
Hank, now a motivational speaker and trainer, is Founder of Western
Ohio Oral, Head and Neck Cancer Support, and dedicates his time to
coordinating five annual FREE HNCA Oral, Head and Neck Cancer
Awareness® screenings for uninsured/disadvantaged in Western Ohio. He
also directs an extensive awareness and educational program and
tirelessly focuses his energies on not only raising needed funds, but
works to save lives through promoting early detection and treatment.
Don't miss this time of information and inspiration from someone who
has experienced the difficulties of battling a serious cancer diagnosis.
There is no charge for this event and the public is welcome.
Refreshments will be furnished.

fundraisers, grants and United Way. Corporate Sponsors for 2017
