Fatigue is defined as “weariness or exhaustion from labor, exertion, or stress” (1). It is a common part of life, but can also be a symptom of an illness, such as cancer, and/or a side effect from treatments, including chemotherapy.
A handful of women from across the Grand Strand enjoyed a dose of holiday cheer and a free makeover at Coastal Cancer Center’s last “Look Good…Feel Better” session of 2013 on December 9 at the practice’s Myrtle Beach office. The program, sponsored by the American Cancer Society, offers free makeovers, tips on wig care and turban styling, in addition to a complimentary cosmetics kit to women actively in cancer treatment.
The December 9 session, attended by 9 local women, was featured on WMBF News at 5 p.m. Click here to watch a clip of the story.
