About this listen

#momscrushingcancer #lungcancerinfluencer #mommyhadalittlecancer #momcrushingcancer  

In this episode, we are delighted to introduce you to a #MomCrushingCancer, Dr. Kavita Jackson. Kavita is a wife, Mom to 2 young daughters and an attending ER Doctor. Kavita was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer shortly after moving to a new city.   

In this episode we discuss: 

 - Auto-pilot mode/tunnel vision  - Diagnosis day; Coping with a cancer diagnosis and small children  - Culture and cancer (Indian and Haitian)  - What brings us joy  - Dr vs. cancer patient  - Top tips for new cancer patients  - Creativity, music and Kavita's dancing skills on TikTok  - The word warrior and other cancer lingo - we weren't taught how 'to do' cancer. We started out with life goals and then cancer happened. It was't something any of us expected. But, we realized we have choices. Choices how to process, choices in how we tell people and choices in how we cope and beyond. Everyone deals with cancer differently and that is OK. Regardless of the diagnosis, we are Moms. We are here and we have so much love to give. And when we were ready, we found community. And when you are ready, there is a cancer community waiting to embrace you when you are ready.
