Imagine you are a college student volunteering for a nonprofit cancer organization that houses people facing cancer and their caregivers when their cancer treatment is far away. You a helping host a dinner to celebrate those who have completed treatment and get to return to their homes all across the world. This event will have celebratory dancing, a wholesome dinner, and fun rounds of bingo and more. 1. list and explain two specific concepts/topics that you anticipate learning about through this activity and two things that you anticipate caring about through this activity. 2. At this point it is unclear as to whether you will be interacting directly with cancer patients/survivors. However, for the time being, assume that you will. How do you anticipate that you will handle the situation? List three questions that you would like to pose to a cancer patient/survivor. (For this question, answer by choosing (and stating in your response) a patient age and a type of cancer that best suits your interests). Will interacting with a child differ from interacting with an elderly patient? Explain.
