If You Give a Mom a Cookie

Cancer for Breakfast
Cancer for Breakfast
Episode • May 6, 2021 • 1h 7m
Mother's Day is upon us, and we've got some Cancer for Breakfast in bed for you, Mom! This isn't your girlfriends' boozy brunch; we're talking medicine, mortality, and motherhood. You didn't think we'd sugarcoat it, did ya?? Amy wants her friends to feel the love even when their mamas are gone; Stef just wants a hammock. A series of beautiful letters hits cancer from one perspective to the next, and the gals talk kids' books--the good, the cringey, and the one where that pig's friends are total jerks. By special request, RATS covers breast cancer that appears during pregnancy and asks: who are you callin' a geriatric mother?

Fear spiral risk: low-medium. Mentions of maternal death, childhood cancer, and the murder of George Floyd.
