SUMMARY:Webinar: When Trauma Meets Brain Tumour 
DESCRIPTION:When Trauma Meets Brain Tumour \nPresented by: Ms. Christine Fader\, Advocate/Patient Experience Advisor  \nDate: Wednesday\, July 22\, 2026\nTime: 12 p.m. to 1 p.m. EST \nRegister here \nWhat happens when people with a trauma history face a serious health diagnosis? Christine Fader’s husband refused treatment for a very curable cancer and she was shocked to later discover that\, like her husband\, a minimum of 1/3 of Canadian adults are trauma survivors. Drawing on the four years she spent supporting her husband through life-limiting illness (including brain metastases)\, this webinar will share insights and ideas to help people impacted by trauma + brain tumours so that everyone\, regardless of their trauma history\, can access better experiences within the healthcare system. \nContent warning: this session will include mention of difficult topics including child sexual and physical abuse\, foster care\, residential school\, and homelessness. \nLearning objectives:  \nAt the end of this session\, participants will: \n1.Recognize the impact of trauma histories among patients with serious illness \n2.Be empowered to request assistance from health care providers while navigating serious illnesses with a history of trauma \n3.Develop awareness of trauma-informed care strategies and specific actions they might use to improve their healthcare experiences \nAbout the speaker: \nChristine Fader is a caregiver advocate\, writer\, and speaker dedicated to advancing trauma-informed cancer care and ensuring caregivers’ voices are heard and valued. She volunteers as a Patient Experience Advisor with Ontario Health/Cancer Care Ontario\, the Southeastern Ontario Cancer Program\, and the Lung Health Foundation. Drawing on lived experience as a caregiver and someone who has lived with seizures for nearly 40 years\, Christine brings insight and compassion to conversations about caregiving\, grief\, and patient-centered care.
