What's covered in this Video:
From Survivors
In this video, Vanessa Mancilla, a childhood cancer survivor and founder of Faros de Vida, explains the need for better follow-up care. When she was trying to become a mother, she did not know which doctor to see or what care she needed. Survivors deserve to understand their bodies and feel supported in every stage of life.
