Today's guest is Jennifer Douglas, breast cancer survivor, author, and national recognized patient advocate. Surviving DCIS (Ductal Carcinoma In Situ), she felt called to encourage others through her writing and online advocacy.
We talk all about DCIS (what it is and isn't, treatments and challenges), the journey of writing a book and why she felt called, the importance of trust in your medical team, emotional well being, and so much more!
There are many misconceptions out there about DCIS and hopefully this episode helps to bring some clarity to this type of breast cancer.
