AFTER /// CHAPTER 81
Transitions
There are several transitions that may happen after you finish therapy:
ONCOLOGY TEAM TO SURVIVORSHIP CARE:
Once your oncology team has decided your chance of recurrence is low, they will be seeing you less
often. But you still need monitoring for late effects of your cancer treatment. This should be done
at least yearly and might be done by your oncologist, your primary care physician or at a cancer
survivorship clinic. Clarify with your cancer team where this care will occur.
PEDIATRICS TO ADULT CARE:
If you were treated at a children's hospital, you may wonder how long you can continue to be treated
there. This varies from hospital to hospital; Cook Children's Oncology clinic follows survivors many
years, certainly into their 20s. Sometimes the transition is forced by a change of insurance. Eventually it
will make sense for you to receive care at an adult facility; ask your pediatric team about this transition
process. If you started your care as a minor, you will also be learning to take a more active role in your
care, including signing consents, making appointments, managing your medications and refills. It may
seem like a lot, but you can do it!
MOVE TO ANOTHER CITY
Part of being a young adult is spreading your wings and you may move for college or work (or fun). As
soon as you know this is on horizon, notify your cancer team. They can help you identify a place in the
new city for continued followup, and transfer necessary records. Certainly ask for a printed summary of
your treatment and necessary followup (called a Survivorship Care Plan); sometimes this all can be put
on a memory stick.
