It's #YACancerAwarenessWeek! While myeloma is less common in younger adults, it does happen. Awareness saves lives—know the signs (bone pain, anemia, fatigue, recurrent infections), get diagnosed early, and find support. Find resources at https://www.myeloma.org

Adolescent and young adult #cancersurvivors in Mexico who experienced #infertility were more likely to have #depression symptoms than those who did not experience infertility.

I'm doing a test to see if my use of the hashtag comes up: #ayacsm

The issue with that is people want my experience and expertise for free. No one EVER acknowledges the emotional & mental toll it takes to talk it. I honestly feel let down by the bulk of the #AYAcancer community. I no longer “belong” anywhere since aging out but still young. #AYACSM
There's such a crucial need to address intersectionality in the #AYACancer space. We need more people speaking up about #racism #AYACSM

If you have any colleagues interested in #AYACancer research (or even in #cancer advocacy because our chats are applicable to many + all of the other onc chats have stopped) please send me their emails and I will add them to the invite. Just make sure they know that it isn't a Teams call! #AYACSM

There’s power in the #AYAcancer community. One of my AYA cancer besties visited this weekend. Crazy that cancer under 40 is what brought us together. These authentic friendships heal, and can be a delightful surprise when you have a million things in common other than #cancer! #AYACSM #community
[#AYACSM] Our next public conversation is taking place tomorrow (Tues, Feb. 3rd) night at 8 PM EST. Join us as we discuss living in a digital world and how that impacts our adolescent and young adults (AYA) cancer advocacy initiatives!

Memories surfaced today, along with news that two more people in cancerland have died. As I approach 10 years of survivorship, I can’t help but wonder why I’m still here and they’re not. The fear of recurrence is real.

Officially 10 years NED (no evidence of disease). Some say remission.
NED and I are still going strong.
Grateful, especially coming back from #SABCS25 and thinking of those living with MBC and those gone too soon from stage IV.
