Fertility Preservation Options for Cancer Patients with guest Amanda Rice of The Chick Mission
Description
Today on the podcast, I'm airing one part of a two part series of interviews with the founders of The Chick Mission, which is a national foundation that is working to preserve hope, sanity, and choice for women battling cancer. And, they are focused on making sure that all women diagnosed with cancer have the financial support, educational information, and legislative advocacy to preserve their fertility. After personal experiences, founders Amanda Rice and Tracy Weiss came together to make sure that all cancer patients have a full life with options to grow a family.
Today’s interview is with Amanda Rice, who is the Founder and a 3-time Cancer Survivor. The Chick Mission hatched when Amanda's fertility preservation coverage was denied by her insurance company. After chemo, radiation and long-term drug therapy, she started fertility treatment. She’s focused on helping other patients find ways to cover the costs of fertility preservation, as socioeconomic standing should not be a factor in anyone wanting to pursue having biological children after they are diagnosed with cancer.
