We share Nancie Steinberg’s path from losing her mother to breast cancer to navigating her own diagnosis, CML management, and a new DCIS finding, translating hard-won lessons into everyday advocacy. Practical guidance on second opinions, seeing a breast surgeon, and building support grounds the whole conversation.

• Why a missed chemo recommendation changed how we view second opinions
• How to interview oncologists and assess fit
• Grief, work, and parenting through treatment
• Opening up about chronic myeloid leukemia after years of silence
• Advocacy that moves policy on screening and access
• Why to see a breast surgeon rather than rely only on OB-GYN exams
• MRI, mammogram and ultrasound roles for high-risk monitoring
• DCIS decisions, reconstruction options, and recovery planning
• Finding therapy, community, and momentum for better days
