Ask an Oncology Nurse | What to Expect After Breast Cancer Diagnosis | The Patient Story

The first conversation with cancer patients and their caregivers after diagnosis can be very difficult and of course, emotional. Hear from a 35-year veteran in oncology nursing, Salinas Valley Memorial Hospital's Bernadette Lucas-Burch, on how she handles approaching the conversation. As a nurse navigator, the point person to help guide cancer patients and their families from diagnosis through treatment, she has been one of the first people to try and help patients and caregivers through treatment and quality of life issues for more than three decades.

It had spread to her brain. Nina was in dire need of a bone marrow transplant. She's of Asian descent, which narrowed her odds of finding a match (fewer people of the same race and ethnicity registered to donate). The good news: she found a donor! The wife and mother of two is living happily. I couldn't be happier. The "odd" news: I was diagnosed with the same cancer, same sub-type just three years later. That motivated me to create The Patient Story: a company to help cancer patients and caregivers by giving them real answers from real people - people who've actually been through the experience.
