Rebecca Shatsky: Taking a vacation that isn’t actually a cancer conference

Rebecca Shatsky recently posted on X:

“Taking a vacation next week for the first time in a very very long time. Planning to unplug completely, but also scared about what I will come back to if I do.

Also, it’s so rare for me to take a vacation that isn’t actually a cancer conference that when I was telling my Dad yesterday I was going on vacation he said ‘Oh, what talk are you giving this time?’ He was quite confused when I tried to explain this was NOT a conference.”
