Elodie Hekimian Brogan - Ovarian Cancer at 16 Years Old, Soon to Be Author & Helping Other Teens Through Cancer

from Cancer Actually F**king Sucks · host CAFS

We're speaking with 17 year old Elodie on this week's episode who was diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer at just 16. Elodie has had no evidence of disease since May 2020 and she speaks with us about how she discovered the 2.5 pound tumor inside her, trying to do school and be a "normal" teenager while also being forced to think about her mortality, and how she went to TikTok to find support and other people that she could relate to. She also shares with us the inside scoop on the book she is writing and how the fact that there were no materials out there for a 16 year old cancer patient is driving her to publish something that other teenagers will be able to find comfort in.  Keep up with Elodie on Instagram and TikTok @pointytomatoe  Follow us to get updates each week on Instagram and Facebook @canceractuallysuckspodcast
