<p>This episode is a little different. Our guest is Kelly Metcalfe, Senior Scientist at Women's College Research Institute. Her research is focused on genetic testing in women with breast cancer. We inundate her with questions about genetic testing, what it can and cannot tell us, and how we can all best access genetic testing.</p>

Blood Cancer IRL [Leukemia]

Being in your 20s or 30s and having cancer means sometimes you Google your symptoms and end up being right about the self diagnosis. It means your career might be going on pause, it means you may need to speak to your partner about kids a lot sooner than you thought. It means you will likely need to develop a great sense of humour. It means you may need to reevaluate your friendships. It means a lot of things, and not all of them are discussed, understood, nor treatable in a doctor's office. This is a podcast about all of those things, in conversation with people who have gone through them, or love someone who has.
