In our previous episode, we heard from Amanda’s mother, Anita, who told her story of her ovarian cancer diagnosis. Today we will hear from Amanda, a beloved daughter and one of Anita's caregivers.
Amanda is a Registered Massage Therapist with nearly three decades of experience in her field. She is happily married and the proud mother of a 15-year-old son. Her family extends beyond her immediate household, with a younger sister residing out West near her mother, Anita. However, Amanda's journey has also been marked by loss, as she lost her older brother in 2016 due to a heart-related condition.
Today, Amanda will share her perspective as a caregiver and a loved one, shedding light on the journey that came with supporting a family member through a gynecologic cancer diagnosis.
