Description

This month’s JGS Listener Roundup features a listener message from Massachusetts reflecting on our Parenting episode along with special Just Gotta SHARE messages from Katherine O’Brien, Julia Maues, Ricki Fairley, Dr. Aditya Bardia, and Anne Loeser.  We also have a great interview from Senior Producer and Co-host Anne Woodward with Sue Cappucci, a person living with MBC who navigated the tough transition from work after her second-line treatment became too exhausting and depleting to continue her regular work schedule.  Sue explains the process she needed to take and highlights the all-too-often realities that people face when there are true gaps in health insurance and federal programs that can fail to meet the needs of individuals living with a terminal diagnosis.  Finally, we highlight the great work of Bridgette Hempstead of the Seattle-based Cierra Sisters who is our November Trailblazer organization of the month.  Wishing all our listeners a safe and happy holiday season even though our normal traditions are necessarily very different this year.  We have just three more episodes this inaugural season and we are dedicating it all to the memory of our dear friend and co-host, Chawnte Randall who died this month.   Check out our blog and episode notes on our website, www.ourmbclife.org.  We are found on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram @ourmbclife.
