ABOUT US
Our own research shows how necessary these things are in order to be able to give to your family and your CK child as constantly and endlessly as you have and we know you do during and after treatment. We understand the impact of witnessing trauma and the resulting surge in stress, anxiety and depression on the body and mind of CK mamas. Exercise, nutrition, and meditation play a critical role in helping to alleviate these side effects.
Did You Know that the majority of cancer mothers report gaining 20-30 pounds after their child's diagnosis, with many reporting upward of a 40 pounds, and state they suffer from anxiety, depression and PTSD.
We Are Here To Help You The physical impact of exercise to counteract weight gain, as well as the mental benefits it has on offsetting anxiety, depression and PTSD are well known. Fit Like A CK Mother is the first in this field to address this connection, creating a platform for these mothers to keep themselves physically well, impacting their emotional and mental well being during this time and after.
