We had our first The TALK, a series of webinars addressing how families speak to each other about their health conditions, of 2021! On Wednesday March 31st, we were honored to have many “pairs” of different types talk about inherited mutations.

With opening commentary and resources from Melissa Rosen (Sharsheret) and Lisa Schlager (FORCE), Rick then introduced moderator extraordinaire, Lindsey Byrne!

We met Ilana Feuchter, with mom, Rozzie Brilliant (BRCA), Peter Kafka, with son Joel Kafka (Lynch mutation, MSH6, and somatic BRCA), sisters Karin Roseman and Stefanie Tsantilis (BRCA), and Dr. Pamela Munster, and with son, Max Daud (BRCA). They shared open and honestly about their own “talks”, and shared many relatable experiences.

We sincerely thank our medical experts, panelists, and partners: UCSF Center for BRCA Research, FORCE, The James The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, NOCC, Sharsheret, and Bag It Cancer. Many thanks to Myovant Sciences for sponsoring.
