Watch as Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Lisa Franchetti sits down with Lt. Sarah Beemiller, a naval oceanographer, to share a story of inspiration during a "B-Gram" for #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth. #EarlyDetectionSavesLives #ThisIsNavyMedicine ℹ Full conversation → https://lnkd.in/gbDsK7id
Team, you may have heard that I was diagnosed and successfully treated for breast cancer over the summer. As I shared my story and highlighted the importance of early detection, I met other people with breast cancer, like LT Sarah Beemiller. Her cancer was unfortunately not detected early, and she reached out to me asking for help sharing her own story and encouraging everyone to be proactive about their preventative healthcare checks. Her courage is an inspiration, and I urge you to take the time to listen to her "B-Gram" for Breast Cancer Awareness month and listen to our full conversation here: https://lnkd.in/gbDsK7id US Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery
