Recovering from #SABCS25 (and working on a report back) and want to say thank you to all the researchers who presented and/or had any part in presented work. It's truly amazing the dedication and hard work by so many people. Appreciate you all!

Patient advocate Samantha Horn opens with a powerful question: “what were you doing in your 20s?” For her, it was chemo. ICYMI, this is a must-watch educational session on breast cancer in young women. #sabcs25 #oncoalert

Disappointed in the mass exodus as the patient advocate is coming in to discuss the patient perspective on mTNBC. #SABCS25

Grateful to @christeeny513 for sharing her story - and how her concerns of a lump were initially dismissed with something far too many hear: “you’re too young for breast cancer”. No one is too young and everyone deserves to have their concerns addressed. #SABCS25 #bcsm

This exactly what we need - guidance to mitigate the side effects from our treatments. Many of us start antihistamines a few days before beginning capi and never have to deal with the rash. And for those super sensitive to loperamide 🙋‍♀️off label crofelemer can be a game changer.
