On December 7, the Duke Cancer Patient Support Program hosted its 33rd Annual Nancy Weaver Emerson Tree of Hope — an evening to honor and remember loved ones, patients, care team members, family, and friends whose lives have been affected by cancer. The program, which was held in the Cancer Center Lobby, included the debut of the 2023 installment of the Many Faces of Cancer and continued with the Tree-of-Hope lighting in the Seese-Thornton Garden of Tranquility.
