Growing Old is a Privilege with Kaitlin Yakura

Kaitlin Yakura, wife of Dean Yakura, who finished last season in the ECHL for the Greenville Swamp Rabbits, joins me on Breaking the Ice and shares with me her journey of finding out she has Stage 3 Melanoma at age 25.

In this Episode we discuss:

  • Getting Diagnosed with cancer and what this emotional process looked like for her
  • What she had going on in her life and how it had to be put on hold
  • What chemotherapy was like and how cancer affected her confidence and self-esteem
  • How growing old is a privilege and the unknowns that cancer can cause in the big picture of life
  • The ways in which she felt the most supported by friends and family
  • How therapy was a huge part of her healing process
  • The importance of being an advocate for yourself and your health
