Penny Casselman's Early Detection of Breast Cancer: A Journey of Advocacy and Self-Awareness

Penny Casselman's Early Detection of Breast Cancer: A Journey of Advocacy and Self-Awareness

"Take control of your health and be an advocate: you can beat the odds and outlive cancer."

Here's what I cover with Penny Casselman in this episode:

  1. What does the experience of being diagnosed with cancer look like for someone who has already lost their mother to the same disease?
  2. How can genetic testing help inform and shape a treatment plan for cancer?
  3. What choices did Penny Casselman make to ensure she was on the right side of the ground and to reduce her risk of cancer reoccurrence?

Penny Casselman is a 45-year-old advocate for her own health who has outlived her mother's metastatic breast cancer. She is a doer who has undergone a radical hysterectomy, bilateral mastectomy, chemotherapy, and a year of Herceptin, as well as a Zometa infusion to lower her risk of recurrence.
