From Diagnosis to Determination
Manage episode 450771949 series 3585314
How do you confront the fear of a potentially life-altering diagnosis when the world seems to be on pause? Join me, Sherry, on "Sylvr Tea" as I share the deeply personal story of my battle with breast cancer, from the hesitation that delayed my mammogram during the pandemic to the sobering moment of receiving my diagnosis. I take you through the emotional and physical challenges of planning for surgery, the intricacies of coordinating with surgical and reconstruction doctors, and the vital importance of staying vigilant with regular check-ups. This episode is a heartfelt recount of my journey and a testament to my determination to embrace life post-cancer.
As we shift into the latter part of the episode, I focus on the complexities of adjusting to a "new normal." I explore the financial challenges that come with short-term disability, the stress it brings, and how it affects day-to-day life. With Women's Health Month as our backdrop, I invite you to reflect on your own experiences and join our supportive community. Stay tuned for more episodes released a few times a week, where we’ll continue to share candid conversations and updates over a comforting cup of tea.
