After the heart-wrenching experience of losing her mother at a tender age, Caren Roblin, a passionate advocate for women's health, shares her poignant journey of navigating life before, during, and after her mother’s battle with breast cancer. Her story casts light on the enduring influence of maternal love and how profound loss can fuel a mission to educate others about the critical importance of early screenings and self-care, even without health insurance.

We delve into personal reflections on how sudden loss during childhood shapes one's perspective on life and health. Through vivid memories and emotional recounting, Caren describes the chaos and confusion of losing her mother and the protective role she played. Writing, for Caren, became an invaluable tool to process grief and connect with others facing similar traumas.

Join us as we tackle the broader issues surrounding healthcare access, particularly for those facing breast cancer, and discuss the significant role of nonprofits in bridging gaps. From navigating healthcare without insurance to discovering community resources, we explore ways to overcome barriers and prioritize health. Caren and I share insights on how early detection can make a life-changing difference, encouraging listeners to seek the support and resources available to them. With personal anecdotes, we underline the importance of finding a supportive network and taking proactive steps in one’s health journey.

Marilyn Getas Byrne, once a prominent television news anchor, unravels her compelling transition into a tireless breast cancer advocate. Her life took an unexpected turn when she was diagnosed with breast cancer at age 40, while raising young children. This journey reshaped her career as she shifted from reporting headlines to crafting narratives that resonate with survivors and their support networks. Through her stories, she offers hope and resilience, showcasing the powerful connection she builds with others, including our serendipitous meeting through TikTok.

Our conversation shines a light on the often overshadowed phase of cancer survivorship, where the emotional and psychological hurdles can be as daunting as the disease itself. Marilyn and I discuss the difficult transition from structured treatment schedules to the uncertainty of post-treatment life. We explore how therapy and open communication can fortify relationships during this challenging period. Additionally, we reflect on how retirement can serve as an opportunity to discover new passions and the vital role storytelling plays in fostering community support and breast cancer awareness, particularly through modalities such as physically working with cancer patients, writing or podcasting.

Marilyn also introduces us to Healing Touch, an innovative approach gaining traction in the cancer care community. This holistic method offers a non-invasive way to ease anxiety and promote healing, providing a comforting space for patients. We discuss invaluable resources like the Know Your Lemons Foundation campaign and practical tools such as Meal Train , Lots A Helping Hands , and We Got This that assist those navigating the cancer journey. With heartfelt gratitude for our listeners, I invite you to share our podcast, helping to spread awareness and support far and wide.
