It’s #AYACancerAwarenessWeek!
What happens when you “age out” of the AYA space, but still have challenges, especially financially, and less support?We must evolve to include those in the middle who, hopefully, have a lot of life ahead.

It's #YACancerAwarenessWeek! While myeloma is less common in younger adults, it does happen. Awareness saves lives—know the signs (bone pain, anemia, fatigue, recurrent infections), get diagnosed early, and find support. Find resources at https://www.myeloma.org

The issue with that is people want my experience and expertise for free. No one EVER acknowledges the emotional & mental toll it takes to talk it. I honestly feel let down by the bulk of the #AYAcancer community. I no longer “belong” anywhere since aging out but still young. #AYACSM
There's such a crucial need to address intersectionality in the #AYACancer space. We need more people speaking up about #racism #AYACSM

There’s power in the #AYAcancer community. One of my AYA cancer besties visited this weekend. Crazy that cancer under 40 is what brought us together. These authentic friendships heal, and can be a delightful surprise when you have a million things in common other than #cancer! #AYACSM #community
