They provide financial support and educational resources for fertility treatments, adoption, and surrogacy while advocating for oncofertility within the healthcare system and beyond.Having both Mike and Megan as guests, we talk about cancer from both the patient and caregiver perspective, fertility issues from reproductive cancers, the families Worth the Wait has helped build, making their mission a family affair with their son Elliott, and so much more!!!This is a conversation that should happen so much more, especially in the young adult cancer space. Please share with those in your life that may be dealing with oncofertility concerns.Resources:Website: https://worththewaitcharity.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/worththewaitcharity/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/WorthTheWaitCharityLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/79794452/Megan's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/meganscherer/Mike's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mike-schererwtw/Follow:Follow me: https://www.instagram.com/melissagrosboll/My website: https://melissagrosboll.comEmail me: [email protected]
