Lisa is joined by Donna Bell in episode 5: Fertility 101.

Donna Bell is a Nurse Practitioner at MD Anderson Cancer Center and an expert in onco-fertility. She cares for pediatric, adolescent and young adult patients in the pediatric leukemia/lymphoma division and she helped to start and leads the onco-fertility consultation service.  

We dive deeper into the meaning of the fertility terminology used and:

  • Why the initial conversation matters
  • Burden parents of patients with sarcoma carry
  • Information overload and squeezing in the fertility conversation
  • All you need is one good man – this is true for marines and sperm
  • Why yearly fertility follow up is so important

And so much more!!!
