As women, we are taught to trust authority. So when a doctor tells you something is or is not wrong, we often believe them without question. Unfortunately, for some, this blind trust can ultimately lead to pain or trauma. Our guest today, Christine Handy, knows this all too well. She is a breast cancer survivor and nationally recognized humanitarian, and in this episode, she shares her incredible story of illness, hope, and the power of friendship.
