How You Can Support a Loved One Through Cancer | Diane Thomas | TEDxEustis

In this insightful talk, recorded at TEDxEustis 2020, Diane Thomas brings compassion and gentle humor to the moment a friend says “I have cancer.” Drawing from experience as a survivor, Thomas details strategies you can utilize to support your friend and the things you can say or do that will help you not only mean well, but do well. Diane Thomas holds two research degrees, and has nearly a decade's experience in both the mortgage industry and in human resources reporting and analytics. Since becoming a financial advisor several years ago, she has been able to combine her two great loves, research and math, with a lifelong commitment to service. She finds deep satisfaction in working with individuals to help them understand the unique pieces of their goals and how they fit together into a coherent whole. Having encountered various personal challenges along the way, Diane is passionate about leveraging experience to positively impact the next conversation and the people with whom she comes in contact. Her husband of 16 years has the near-impossible task of preventing her from volunteering too often, and tolerates her continuous "Have you ever wondered..." questions. Their energetic daughter keeps them both tired and amused, and is the light of their lives.
