Season 2 Episode 7: A Chinese Perspective – Hereditary Cancers, Genetic Testing and Language Accessibility (一個華人對癌症遺傳基因檢測的體驗)

不要害怕做遺傳性癌症檢測，它可以輓救生命。This episode of the GOSH Podcast is very special - it is our first episode recorded entirely in another language! Stephanie met with Rose Lee, a Chinese patient who was diagnosed with both breast cancer and ovarian cancer. After her ovarian cancer diagnosis, she received hereditary cancer testing where she discovered she had a BRCA1 mutation. Rose talks about her journey to this discovery and the impact it had on her friends/family. She also talks candidly about the importance of language accessibility and how important the Chinese Support Group at BC Cancer was in her journey. For more information on the Gynecologic Cancer Initiative, please visit https://gynecancerinitiative.ca/ or email us at [email protected] Where to learn more about us: Twitter - https://bit.ly/3jsViHM Instagram - https://bit.ly/3dRQsCF Facebook - https://bit.ly/3knUgOw For more information on the Gynecologic Cancer Initiative, please visit https://gynecancerinitiative.ca/ or email us at [email protected]  Where to learn more about us:  Twitter – @GCI_Cluster Instagram – @gynecancerinitiative Facebook – facebook.com/gynecancerinitiativeTikTok – @gci_gosh
