Since it's Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we are sharing the harrowing story of a Registered Technologist and Cardiac Invasive Specialist who almost lost her life to Breast Cancer after years of exposure to radiation during limb and life-saving procedures in the Cath Lab. In part one of this two-part series, Sheehan L. Raab shared her passion for saving limbs and her journey to diagnosis of breast cancer. This is part two where Raab candidly walks us through her fight to save her own life and what she learned along the way about the real dangers of radiation exposure, gaps in healthcare, and a critical need for an improved healthcare system for people with life-threatening ailments. Even if you didn't listen to part one of this series, tune into this episode because it's a powerful story that will drive home the importance of advocating for yourself or having someone advocate for you at the hospital.
