‘A Walk Through Peru’

Monday, July 20th at 5:30 pm

One of the ways AUA has helped prostate cancer survivors and their partners have been by hosting a ZERO Prostate Cancer Support Group powered by ZERO Prostate Cancer. This month, Carrie DeFuss, one of our AUA Nurse Practitioners, will be sharing this journey on an amazing trip.

It is hard to fully capture how big this experience is, physically, emotionally, and spiritually, but she shared these photos in hope that they give folks a small glimpse of the beauty, strength, and purpose behind this journey.
