The Cancer Gene & Me // with Zoe Croy

26 year old Zoe recently received the news that she has ATM - also known as ‘the cancer gene’.

Zoe has made the difficult decision to have a double mastectomy, which is the medical term for the surgical removal of both .

We talk about how a litany of cancer diagnoses in Zoe’s family has shaped her understanding and perception of the illness…

Zoe explains her decision, the process of post-surgery reconstruction and the implications that may come her way…

And we discuss how to check your body for changes, and the need to see a doctor immediately, if you notice any. It may be embarrassing, but it could save your life.

And as always, there's plenty more.
