It was only a couple years after Trish Gauthier's son had been diagnosed with leukemia that she received her own diagnosis: breast cancer. Even though she had just had her physical and everything had looked great, Trish knew that something was off in her body. On today's episode, Trish talks to me about how she's advocated for herself and her son through their journeys with illness, her determination to find a community, and her advocacy for equity in the medical system (and how we can all do our part).
