On our second edition of The TALK, a series of webinars addressing how parents and kids of every age speak to each other about their health conditions, we had the pleasure of having the ovarian cancer community share their perspectives with us.
On Wednesday July 29th, with an excellent discussion moderated by Dr. Pamela Munster (co-leader of the esteemed UCSF Center for BRCA Research), and top medical experts in the field Dr. Jocelyn Chapman (Board certified Gynecologic Oncologist at UCSF), and Beth Peshkin MS, CGC (Professor of Oncology and the Director of Genetic Counseling at Georgetown Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center).
We were so thrilled to have our own Ovarian Cancer Virtual Support Group moderator Ilana Feuchter (of NOCC) welcome our guests and attendees. Most important of all, we had wonderful family members of all kinds share vulnerable and honest conversations about their own “talks”. Maria Ciesla and her daughter, Alex Cornwell. Ni Guttenfelder, and her sister Leigha. Elena Solomon, and her daughter Liz Solomon. And the McConnell family, with Craig, Ross, and Corey.
There were many laughs, tears, and heartfelt moments. Including great answers to your questions by our experts. We want to thank our co-sponsors Sharsheret, NOCC (National Ovarian Cancer Coalition), FORCE (Facing Our Risk of Cancer Empowered), and UCSF Helen Diller Family Comprehensive Cancer Center.
