Festival offers chance to reconnect for cancer patients

A patient-caregiver relationship can be shrouded by its stressful terms, but Saturday offered a time of smiles and laughter for cancer patients past and present with their doctors. Now in its 13th year, the Harvest of Hope is a day for people affected by cancer to reconnect with “the dear friends that we make and meet through the journey,” in the words of White County resident Ginger Quinn. Quinn was diagnosed with cancer in December 2011 at Northeast Georgia Medical Center, and was a patient at the Longstreet Clinic in Gainesville.
