CANCER BESTIES WITH MISSI & ALICE ๐ฏโโ๏ธ
1h 6m | Apr 4, 2024I am so excited to introduce you to my cancer besties, Missi and Alice, who turned their breast cancer journeys into purpose!
Cancer Besties is an incredible online toolbox that translates your imaging & lab reports into plain English, & also provides a list of follow-up questions to ask your provider. ๐คฏ (When I posted about it on @theboobiedocs, you all went crazy with good reason!)ย
We talk about each of their breast cancer journeys & how this inspired them to create Cancer Besties. Missi was found to carry a BRCA 1 mutation and underwent a prophylactic bilateral mastectomy. She then helped her friend Alice, who was diagnosed with breast cancer after her first mammogram.
We cover a lot in this important conversation, including:
โขWhat to expect for your mammogram & biopsy
โขUnderstanding your imaging & biopsy results
โขHow to calculate your own breast cancer risk score using the Tyrer-Cuzick calculatorย
โขThe real reason you canโt wear deodorant during a mammogramโฆ
And so much more!ย
I hope you love this conversation as much as we do.

Robyn, Missi, & Aliceย
