Join us for Part Two of a special two-part series as we speak to Dr. Christabel Cheung, a two-time Hodgkin Lymphoma Survivor. In this episode, Christabel talks about her extraordinary struggles as a young adult with cancer, such as living alone without family support and having high healthcare costs. She also delves into the health disparities, racism and racial insensitivity that BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) patients experience. Be sure to listen to Part One first to hear more about Christabel’s journey with Hodgkin Lymphoma as a Young Adult.
