Very important information/advice but sadly, in the U.S., the quality of available healthcare is often solely dependent on the amount of $ you have in the bank.
Unless you’re a foreigner who came to America. They get welfare immediately.
I’m still here after 18 years post triple negative breast cancer grade 3. I had a mastectomy, 8 months of chemo and 25 radiation treatments age 35.
And I’m lucky to still be here and enjoying life everyday. I had my other breast removed and my ovaries as a precaution. I’m now adopting a beautiful dog from the local rescue Centre to give her a lovely life too 🩷 good luck to all of you, whether your the patient or the family or friend of this horrible disease. My heart is with you all xxx
Thanks so much for this conversation Katie, Chris and Dr. Newman. Very informative - I'm a cancer survivor - tonsilar - 6 years out.
Fantastic forum. Keep up our fight. I lost my daughter at 40 to BRCA1 positive ovarian cancer. She left behind two sons that were barely 5 and 3. We need more forums like this made available to help women everywhere to manage their own health. The men in the places that should be passionately helping us AREN’T. We need more women of the world of all ethnicities to get the education and passion for the sciences to help us in this quest!
GREAT discussion. Can't say enough about your advocacy, Katie. You are doing awesome things for so many, and saving lives. Thank you!
I always wished you gave more info about your process. I saw your ex-rays and I too had a lump in the same place as you but on the right breast. You had 15 radiation procedures and I had 33. I had biopsy, a stereotactic procedure, very painful, then the lumpectomy , then another surgery to remove more tissue. But I always wondered why you had 15 procedure and my doctor recommended 33. I was also stage 1. Now on anastrozole for about 5 years. So glad you did this program with Chrissy and Dr. Newman. Thanks Jane, Philadelphia
I had stage I,N0M0, oncotype 0, and I had 5 radiation sessions, now on anastrozole ,started 4 months ago.
Thank you for this life saving information. Thank you for sharing your stories. I am so very happy that Katie and Chris are doing well. You are both icons.
I just read that Chris has a recurring cancer😢.
In 2008 I found a lump in my breast that turned out to be cancer. I have dense breast tissue. I had a mammogram 9 months before that was normal. It is important to know your body and to do self exams.
Thanks Katie, Chris and Dr. I hope that you all are doing well. ❤
Great panel! Lovely to see you Ladies ❤Sending much love your way
Thank you for having this necessary conversation - historically cancer has been kept a secret - not enough information amongst those who have been diagnosed - again, thank you 🙏
This was so informative. Wonderful panel. Thank you!
I don't want any kind of cancer nowhere in my body
Warriors, all 3 of you women! Thank you for this information. I go in less than 8 hours for a 3D spot compression/ultrasound after a suspicious spot was found on my original mammogram. Keep up the excellent work-so helpful to so many. 💖💖💖
This is an excellent forum,empowering women and sharing experiences.Thank you to all of you.
Thank you for sharing your experiences. It means so much! I’m sorry you went through these difficult experiences.
*Thank you so much Katie Couric!* This information is so imoortant for us all to pay attention to. *You have set a great example and made it okay to bring this critical conversation out into to the open.* Love and light to you, Blessed Be!
Terrific discussion!
Thank you for all the information presented here and for highlighting the inequities in health care between men and women, people of color and white, rich and poor.
Wow! I was told my mammogram was fine, because they could not find anything, as I had dense breasts. Which they said my breasts were normal, because of the strong muscle tissue, instead of women who had fatty breasts...the x-ray could not see thru my muscle tissue. Luckily there is no history of breast cancer in my family. So I never worried about it. I'm soon to be 76, and still enjoying a healthy life! That's got to be one of the scarriest things ever to have your breasts removed. I used to have a good friend who had to have it done, to herself, and also her daughter! Thank you Katie Couric, I always enjoyed your shows, and this was most insightful! God Bless all Goddesses, because that's what we are! One more thing, believe in Angels...as they are around us all. Bless them and ask for their protection and guidance. It's a very good thing to do:)) May the power be with us, and Love remains!
Never wanna ever get any type of cancer ♋️
Such news 😢
Both my mom and sister had breast cancer. I’m assuming I will also eventually get breast cancer. Which is why I am diligent about getting mammograms.
Goodness, i hope not❤
Was lovely to see Chrissie at Wimbledon this year.
We need to advocate for equal medical treatment for all, regardless of race or gender.
Watch out for dimpling and density 49:12
What about baby aspirin as a preventative measure. I’ve read studies for years that supports this.
How sad 😢
You never spoke of the drug Herception I had my chemo and radiation and one year of Herception one of the best drugs out there for breast cancer
I don't want any kind of cancer
3D mammogram picked up my .80 cm breast tumor in February this year. My first 3D was in Feb 2022. I have dense breasts. They said they do 2D mammograms unless the physician requests 3D! And that some insurance companies don’t pay for 3D. (I live on Maui)
When is menopause day
Chris Evert is still pretty cute.
I am never gonna remove my breasts
Why don't we have these 2 Braca genes tests at 30? Beats the time and expense of finding a cure.
Look up dimethylglycine DIM amino acid stabilizes estrogenic activity gone awry My dog had two breast cancer tumors both disappeared
Breasts cancer ♋️ is toxic 😢 50:48
Katie … I am in Australia … My Mum had ovarian cancer & was tested just 2 days before she died, with final tests selected some extra genes given her family history (lots of different cancers & no repeats)… it was found she had a mutant PALB2 Gene that is lesser known but acts similiar to BRCA1 & BRCA2… Both my sister & i were then tested, both being positive to the mutant PALB2 gene, that increased risk to ovarian, pancreatic & breast cancer… I then started high risk screening for BC in June 2020 & after first 3D Mammogram/US in June2020 I was diagnosed with BC Stage2c & have now done the lot (lumpectomy/chemo/radiation & then just finished this year double mastectomy/reconstruction) and on the same journey with Aromatose Inhibitors, and doing well now. In 2020 no screening for ovarian/pancreatic, but 3years on i am fortunate to be joining a Sydney pancreatic screening trial that is showing great success, and also in Melb there is a well advanced new 10year ovarian blood test that is planning to go to next level of trials for FDA approval later this year. I so believe the key is to having genetic testing being extended to any who wish to test or manage their own health… Note that every persons DNA carries approx 25000 genes, so there is a long way to go to work on solving the mystery to identify more genes that heightens risks using statistics … All the best to you both to keep up this awareness campaign that i am also so passionate about…
Ooh 😮
Chris Evert turned her family the neighbour’s wife’s lives upside down when she and Greg Norman dumped them .
You are not GOD so leave chrissie alone. Not one of us is perfect . Margaret
Evert chased Burt Reynolds who was just one of many man she threw herself at. You can read what she did in his autobiography. It's a wonder she's never got riddled with STD's, the list of men who raked her over is longer than cars through the Blackwall tunnel. And the heartache she caused in her pursuit of men. She broke up marriages, including her own, and caused grief to the children involved. She even killed her own baby before she/ was born because she preferred hitting a ball over the net to giving a daughter a chance of life. Jimmy Connors wasn't allowed to say whether his child lived or died. We thought she had settled down when Andy Mill came along, after she dumped a perfectly good husband, John Lloyd and she broke up Andy's marriage to get him. But karma finally caught up with her when husband number three dumped her. But not before the distress she caused to her own three sons and his children. Well her promiscuity finally caught up with her. Look at the state she's in now.
What you are saying is pure evil . Saying she got cancer because she was an actively sexual single woman when this “ activity” your talking about . You are wrongly assigning blame - her sister happened to find the love of her life early and stayed with him and she’d dead of ovarian cancer . Cancer can happen to any one at any time and it has. O thing to do with behavior. Chris was known to date but was not promiscuous by any standard sexually. She followed her heart not her gonads . Slut shaming must be a common way prejudiced ( sexist ) people make sense of an evil thing like cancer make sense to them . Expand your mind . If cancer was a result of being sexually active why don’t more men - sports stars get testicular cancer . Oh , I guess it’s ok for men to have sex outside or inside marriage because rate of testicular cancer is 1/25 of the rate women get breast and or ovarian cancer. Your comment shows your prejudice and ignorance - a potent cocktail that is morally empty. Cancer when it developed doesn’t care what the behavior is of the recipient .
Sorry but promiscuity does not cause Ovarian Cancer .
Believe that if you must, but it's a lifestyle ridden with disease.@@jenniferjanssen9876
I’m quite sure women seeking information on breast cancer do not appreciate your disgusting post. How crass.
