Mia is joined by OsteoWarriors Mackenzie, Sammy, and Sean to share their experiences with long-term side effects from osteosarcoma treatment. Nausea and hair loss are well-known side effects of chemotherapy - but what are some of the side effects that linger long after chemotherapy is over? Listen in on this frank discussion on why it can feel like cancer is never done with you. The group talks about their own experiences with fatigue, hearing loss, cardiomyopathy, infertility, depression, and managing daily life with disabilities. The word balance comes up a lot in the conversation - and the group also talks about their favorite self-care techniques that help them through "mourning the person I used to be and trying to embrace the person I've become."
