When someone receives a cancer diagnosis, getting expert medical care and treatment is top of mind. But emotional support is extremely vital during this trying time. The two aspects are not exclusive and can complement each other beautifully. Joining us to discuss the mission of ABCD: After Breast Cancer Diagnosis and their mentor program is Executive Director Ellen Friebert Schupper. Ellen is joined by someone who has seen how medical and emotional support work together, Jean Godfroy, Breast Program Nurse Coordinator at Froedtert and the Medical College of Wisconsin.
