from Ruth: “As a 30-year blood cancer "patient" and now a cancer care partner to my husband, in addition to my patient advocacy work and health/medical writing, including as a contributor to the New York Times, I do honestly believe I bring a unique perspective to any conversation about the chronic effects of many of today's cancers.”
