After the heart-wrenching experience of losing her mother at a tender age, Caren Roblin, a passionate advocate for women's health, shares her poignant journey of navigating life before, during, and after her mother’s battle with breast cancer. Her story casts light on the enduring influence of maternal love and how profound loss can fuel a mission to educate others about the critical importance of early screenings and self-care, even without health insurance.
We delve into personal reflections on how sudden loss during childhood shapes one's perspective on life and health. Through vivid memories and emotional recounting, Caren describes the chaos and confusion of losing her mother and the protective role she played. Writing, for Caren, became an invaluable tool to process grief and connect with others facing similar traumas.
Join us as we tackle the broader issues surrounding healthcare access, particularly for those facing breast cancer, and discuss the significant role of nonprofits in bridging gaps. From navigating healthcare without insurance to discovering community resources, we explore ways to overcome barriers and prioritize health. Caren and I share insights on how early detection can make a life-changing difference, encouraging listeners to seek the support and resources available to them. With personal anecdotes, we underline the importance of finding a supportive network and taking proactive steps in one’s health journey.
