It’s #lifraumenisyndrome awareness day. For me & other living with LFS awareness day is everyday. There is no greater expression than a smile when you have been given the diagnosis of a life altering genetic predisposition. Love the life you life no matter what ❤️.

@kristendahlgren “After a woman has been through breast cancer, a life-threatening illness, she simply wants to be able to have an option to be made whole again from her own tissue,” says @DWStweets about insurance coverage of reconstruction surgery for breast cancer survivors. 🧵2/2

March is #lifraumenisyndrome awareness month. All people who have LFS have a 90% chance of developing one or more types of cancer in their lifetimes & a 50% chance of developing a cancer before age 30. #cancer #genetics #TheMoreYouKnow #Awareness

A cancer diagnosis should come with a salary because fighting for your life is a full time job. Am I right?

Congratulations to Dr. @CarolynBertozzi for being awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry. She is the 50th American Cancer Society-funded researcher and the first woman funded by ACS to win the prestigious honor. Learn more: pressroom.cancer.org/NobelPrize

The American Cancer Society recommends cervical cancer screening for people with a cervix who have an average risk of cervical cancer. This includes some transgender and non-binary people. #MensHealthMonth #CervicalCancer #GetScreeened

Surviving thanks to the work I along with the staff and volunteers do each day @AmericanCancer. Thank you for sharing my story.

We’re celebrating survivors all month long, and we hope you’ll join us. In the last year, we’ve helped more than 90,000 patients with programs and services designed to give cancer survivors the strength and support they need. Find out more at cancer.org/survivors.

So let me get this straight, we live in a country where it’s easier to buy an AR-15 than to get my health insurance company to approve my cancer treatment

If I can offer you once piece of advice, it’s wear sunscreen. Sunburns are not cool. The 1st Monday in May is known as #melanomamonday Spray tans are cooler than real tans. Shout out to Dr. Susan Chon @MDAndersonNews for helping me stay on top of my screenings #mealnomaawareness

Over 1/3 of Americans missed routine cancer screenings due to COVID 19. Genentech works to advance health equity & ensure cancer prevention resources are available in every community. Applauding #GetScreened founding sponsor @Genentech as 2021 ACS Corporate Partner of the Year!

The more I think about airlines abruptly allowing mask removal w/o warning—mid-flight for many—the angrier I get. People who are #immunocompromised had no choice not to travel or to upgrade their protection at that point. Some will go on to die. As an oncologist, I am enraged.
