Leah is joined by MN Native News reporter Melissa Townsend, who is a cancer survivor herself and discusses staying vigilant around taking care of your health, even as the pandemic complicates the whole process of seeking screenings, treatments, and follow-up care.
We hear wise words from Dr. Anthony Stately, and elder Sharon Day. And we also hear information from Mayo Clinic oncologist Dr. Tanios Bekaii-Saab and Dr. Halena Gazelka of the Mayo Clinic, courtesy of the Mayo Clinic Q&A podcast
Also, MN Native News reporter Melissa Townsend speaks with AICAF’s Misha Loeffler and Jessica Makori, about getting help and support while navigating a cancer diagnosis and treatment, especially given the added challenges of the pandemic.
And we check out the great resources the American Indian Cancer Foundation (AICAF) has on their website, including the Cancer Burden Booklet. Find out more at americanindiancancer.org.
