Laura is a wife, a mother, a dog owner, a nonprofit development consultant, and a dedicated do-it-your-self-er who loves to spend time with her family, travel, stay up late and sleep in.   What really stood out to me in this conversation with Laura is how meticulously she researched every aspect of her treatment options, from her physicians and their treatment recommendations, to her fellow patients as far as what they were glad they and what they wish they had done differently.   Laura has ben cancer-free for ten years.   0:00:00 How the cancer was found0:15:00 Making your needs clear00:27:43 Additional opinions00:34:30 Breast reconstruction00:45:06 Interviewing your doctor0:57:20 Side effects 1:04:45 Feeling at home in our bodies1:10:46 Others noticing our altered bodies1:15:10 Sharing our experience with others1:25:30 Choosing a direction1:29:20 Cancer and being a parent1:36:25 Lifting each other up1:40:20 Our unique responses to treatment and procedures1:47:00 Cancer screening   -recorded April 24, 2020
