Moving Beyond program seeks to help cancer patients

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) – The Franciscan Alliance Foundation is trying to help cancer patients find a new normal after treatment.

The Executive Director Greg Williamson and Curt Smith, the father of former Butler Basketball player Andrew Smith joined 24-Hour News 8 at noon on Monday.

Smith died from cancer earlier this year. His father will be the keynote speaker at the event.

Here are some of the questions they answered:

  • After medical treatment is over, survivors can experience some difficulties finding a new normal, what kind of things do they go through?
  • What is the Moving Beyond program? Is it available just for survivors who received treatment at St. Francis?
  • Andrew’s father answers why he’s a part of the program.
  • What’s the cost to join the program?
  • Tell us about the event you have planned for this week. How will it help the cancer survivors?
  • Where can people learn more about this program?
