People get diagnosed with cancer. People with jobs, families, and busy lives. Yesterday at Reuters Pharma and Patient USA, we brought Raquel, Michael, Joe, and Nicole on stage to share how cancer upends peoples' lives, forcing them to miss work, skip rent payments, and question if they can afford the gas to their care centers each week. Their stories remind us that treatment requires more than medicine — families need a roof over their heads and food in their fridges to survive cancer. Thank you to this powerful team for their honesty and vulnerability. Together, we can build a world where every person facing cancer can meet their basic needs.💜💚
What a presentation! Huge thanks to Carla Tardif, Family Reach on shining the ultimate spotlight on true lived experiences of patients. And a huge thanks to Joe Chabot, Nicole Perkins, Raquel Rohlfing and Michael Longo for sharing your stories. The audience were truly moved. #REpatientUSA
