Have you or someone you love experienced cancer? Do you sometimes feel overwhelmed with either your own health issues or another person's as their caregiver? Do you believe in the power of story and its healing ability? Narrative medicine can empower people to speak and write their truth. Through the experience of being vulnerable and sharing your own story, you may find a common bond with others.
Questions? Email program@gildasclubmadison.org
What You'll Need:
- Pens, pencils, or whatever writing tool you like
- Paper/journal
- Laptop/tablet if you prefer to type
About the Facilitator:
 Jamie Steckelberg is a ten-year cancer survivor and Gilda’s Club member. She also was a caregiver for
both parents Bob and Elma during their cancer journeys. During chemotherapy while perusing the books at Gilda’s, she encountered a book entitled When Words Heal by Sharon Bray on how to create and facilitate writing groups using the Amherst Writer
and Artist method. Within months after chemo had ended, she became an Amherst Writer and Artist facilitator of Write to Heal, a writing group for cancer survivors and caregivers at Gilda’s Club in Middleton, WI. Her daughter Josie has been an integral
part of Jamie’s healing not only through shaving her own head but also by painting and pouring mud on her mother’s head. A poet and English Instructor at Madison College, Jamie also enjoys thrifting and creating art with Josie.

for yourself or you are not able to communicate your preferences. By planning ahead, you can find comfort that your current and future care preferences are in writing and will guide your loved ones so they will not have the burden of guessing what
you would want during if you could not speak for yourself about medical decisions. Learn more about how you can make your own health care decisions through written and verbal communication with your medical team and family.

Write to Heal
Time

Zoom
Monthly on 2nd Sat @ 9am-10:30am CT via Zoom
Have you or someone you love experienced cancer? Do you sometimes feel overwhelmed with either your own health issues or another person's as their caregiver? Do you believe in the power of story and its healing ability? Narrative medicine can empower people to speak and write their truth. Through the experience of being vulnerable and sharing your own story, you may find a common bond with others.
Questions? Email program@gildasclubmadison.org
What You'll Need:
- Pens, pencils, or whatever writing tool you like
- Paper/journal
- Laptop/tablet if you prefer to type
About the Facilitator:
Jamie Steckelberg is a ten-year cancer survivor and Gilda’s Club member. She also was a caregiver for
both parents Bob and Elma during their cancer journeys. During chemotherapy while perusing the books at Gilda’s, she encountered a book entitled When Words Heal by Sharon Bray on how to create and facilitate writing groups using the Amherst Writer
and Artist method. Within months after chemo had ended, she became an Amherst Writer and Artist facilitator of Write to Heal, a writing group for cancer survivors and caregivers at Gilda’s Club in Middleton, WI. Her daughter Josie has been an integral
part of Jamie’s healing not only through shaving her own head but also by painting and pouring mud on her mother’s head. A poet and English Instructor at Madison College, Jamie also enjoys thrifting and creating art with Josie.

Baduanjin (Eight Pieces of Brocade or Eight Skilken Movements) is one of the most common forms of Tai Chi exercise that serves to improve human health. A complete Baduanjin includes eight separate exercises, each addressing a different physical area
and qi meridian. In traditional Chinese Medicine, meridians support the flow of qi and other fundamental substances in the body.
There are both standing and seated versions of Baduanjin in history, but the standing version is more popular among modern practitioners. Studies show that practicing Baduanjin regularly is beneficial for quality of life, sleep quality, balance, handgrip
strength, trunk flexibility, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and resting heart rate.

Write to Heal
Time

Zoom
Monthly on 2nd Sat @ 9am-10:30am CT via Zoom
Have you or someone you love experienced cancer? Do you sometimes feel overwhelmed with either your own health issues or another person's as their caregiver? Do you believe in the power of story and its healing ability? Narrative medicine can empower people to speak and write their truth. Through the experience of being vulnerable and sharing your own story, you may find a common bond with others.
Questions? Email program@gildasclubmadison.org
What You'll Need:
- Pens, pencils, or whatever writing tool you like
- Paper/journal
- Laptop/tablet if you prefer to type
About the Facilitator:
Jamie Steckelberg is a ten-year cancer survivor and Gilda’s Club member. She also was a caregiver for
both parents Bob and Elma during their cancer journeys. During chemotherapy while perusing the books at Gilda’s, she encountered a book entitled When Words Heal by Sharon Bray on how to create and facilitate writing groups using the Amherst Writer
and Artist method. Within months after chemo had ended, she became an Amherst Writer and Artist facilitator of Write to Heal, a writing group for cancer survivors and caregivers at Gilda’s Club in Middleton, WI. Her daughter Josie has been an integral
part of Jamie’s healing not only through shaving her own head but also by painting and pouring mud on her mother’s head. A poet and English Instructor at Madison College, Jamie also enjoys thrifting and creating art with Josie.

Baduanjin (Eight Pieces of Brocade or Eight Skilken Movements) is one of the most common forms of Tai Chi exercise that serves to improve human health. A complete Baduanjin includes eight separate exercises, each addressing a different physical area
and qi meridian. In traditional Chinese Medicine, meridians support the flow of qi and other fundamental substances in the body.
Studies show that practicing Baduanjin regularly is beneficial for quality of life, sleep quality, balance, handgrip strength, trunk flexibility, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and resting heart rate.
