  • Farewell for Now
    May 23 2024

    Today marks our 50th and final episode! We’ve been creating the My Sister’s Cancer podcast for a year. Like we always say, it’s a pity so many of us carry the heavy burden of cancer alone, so let’s make it a party and carry it together. Thanks for carrying it with us this past year.

  • Cancer and Reproductive Health
    Apr 4 2024

    Issues of fertility and reproduction are fraught even in the best of scenarios. And for many AYA cancer survivors, their fertility and reproductive health were not addressed during the course of their cancer treatment in the way they had hoped. On today’s show we hold space for that disappointment and explore this often overlooked part of being a young survivor.
