This episode of Taking Control of Cancer features an inspirational #breastcancer story from diagnosis to treatment and recovery. Host Steve Bland and North East London Cancer Alliance Managing Director Femi Odewale speak to Pamela Okyere, who was diagnosed with breast cancer in June 2021.

When Pamela was diagnosed, her immediate thought was that she was going to die. However, after surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and immunotherapy she is now cancer free. Pamela wants to make a difference in her community by changing the narrative around cancer in minority communities and helping to raise awareness.

Pamela shares her breast cancer story, starting with her diagnosis and then moving on to her treatment and support. She introduces the great work of charity Black Women Rising ([ Ссылка ]) , for which she is an ambassador, and talks about how we can help minority communities to come forward, like Pamela did, for life-saving treatment.
