Cancer Straight Talk

Dating After a Cancer Diagnosis


Listen Later

Navigating the dating world after a cancer diagnosis can be tricky. From the fear of disclosing a diagnosis to insecurities around bodily changes, to the emotional baggage patients feel they’re bringing into a relationship, diving back into the dating pool comes with its challenges. In this episode, Dr. Diane Reidy-Lagunes sheds light on the universality of these fears with advice from MSK psychologist Talia Zaider and cancer survivor Irene Dimatulac. Through personal anecdotes and expert insights, they provide a nuanced look at the dating experience for cancer survivors and offer guidance for how to move forward with readiness and self-love.
