Michelle Robinson : Partner Member Profile: “You’ll Never Walk Alone"

Partner Member Profile: “You’ll Never Walk Alone”

Michele Robinson came up with the idea for her cancer support group, “You’ll Never Walk Alone,” during her first chemotherapy treatment for ovarian cancer in November 2004. “I was looking around the room and that song popped into my head. It was true—even though you do experience cancer yourself, no one knows what you feel but you—you don’t have to go through it alone.”
Today, “You’ll Never Walk Alone” welcomes survivors of all types of cancer, as well as “co-survivors”—spouses, family members or friends who are helping care for someone with cancer. Michele has experience with both sides: she is a survivor of breast and ovarian cancers, and cared for her late husband and father as they dealt with stomach, laryngeal and prostate cancers.
The support group meets twice a month in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii.....
