Episode notes

AfterThoughts was created to make visible some of the invisible cancer stories from within the young cancer community.

For this episode, we're joined by the brill Sukhy. Sukhy was diagnosed with breast cancer when she was 37. She joins us to talk about being a single mum and going through cancer during Covid (FUN), breaking down taboos around mental health and illness and navigating going back to work (or not - as the case may be) after a cancer diagnosis.
