Patient Stories Inspire and Empower Improved Health

SAN ANTONIO - July 6, 2015 - PRLog -- Treatment Diaries, Inc. and Patient Empowerment Network announce a strategic partnership to bring patient stories to those seeking resources and support.

“Knowledge is power and power brings patients the confidence and strength to help them through their journey with an illness” said Joan Justice, Executive Director of the Patient Empowerment Network.  This organization is focused on educating and supporting patients so that they can take control of their health and learn how to live and how to cope with their illness.  Joan also stated, “In partnership with Treatment Diaries we are empowering the patient population even more by connecting them to the genuine stories of patients sharing life with cancer.”

TreatmentDiaires.com is a digital health care platform designed to connect caregivers and those on a journey with illness through online health related conversations captured in personal diaries.  This partnership places the patient story at the center of the patient experience and together, Patient Empowerment Network and Treatment Diaries will uniquely meet patients and caregivers at the intersection of social and health; providing a safe and completely private experience with the support needed most from the people who understand living with cancer best!

“In sickness and in health, patients always feel better knowing others have traveled a similar path.”  Amy Ohm,  Founder of TreatmentDiaries.com also went on to say, “Social support and valuable resources in partnership with Patient Empowerment Network is the perfect complement to our mission at Td - Keeping health private so you can be social about everything and sharing personal experiences to improve the lives of those who can relate.  It is both an honor and a privilege to partner with a purpose driven organization that cares so much for those in need.  We are incredibly grateful for this partnership!”
