Navigating Breast Cancer & Menopause as Young Women (The System Doesn't Know What to Do With You)
justUS
In this episode, Margo & Tashira share what it was like to be diagnosed with breast cancer (while still young women under 40) what their doctors prepared them for (and didn't prepare them for) and how they find themselves now in recovery. A major theme that emerges is how the doctors and medical establishment at large, minimize the concerns of women going through treatment, and how Margo & Tashira have often felt blindsighted about something they've experienced during/post treatment, and they discuss ways this could be improved within our health care system.

We then move on to a discussion of the anti-black racism...
