Show Notes

Four years after being diagnosed with inflammatory breast cancer, Kathleen Pence shares her story on Poisoned, Bald, and Still Standing.

From the shock of her diagnosis and the difficult conversations with her children to the incredible support of her husband throughout treatment, Kathleen opens up about what her family went through, hearing the words “you have cancer” and the many challenges of treatment.

But surviving cancer is only part of the story.

We talk about something that doesn't get discussed nearly enough: what happens after chemotherapy ends. The lingering effects, the things your body no longer allows you to do, and the realization that getting back to your old normal may not be possible.

It's a candid conversation about family, survival, and learning to live with the changes cancer leaves behind.
