More young people are surviving cancer, then they face a life altered by it

Fumiko Ladd Chino, Assistant Professor in Radiation Oncology at MD Anderson Cancer Center, shared a post on X:

“The new generation of cancer survivor is younger, less financially secure, and still having to navigate life after treatment, from dating to career, sex and child rearing.” 

So glad that AYAcsm, survonc, financial Toxicity and MBC are getting time on NPR.

Listen to Lourdes Monje.
