This is the second and final part of Dara and Amber's powerful discussion Monica Jones, our childhood friend and an incredibly strong and kind human. She shares what it's like to deal with a terminal diagnosis, metastatic (Stage IV) breast cancer, and reflects on defying the odds for almost a decade. In this episode, you'll also hear about her hopes and boundless love for her daughter, how this diagnosis has shaped relationships, what her friends' and family's support means to her, and how she focuses on the positive as much as possible. Listen and you're sure to be deeply moved and inspired, with room for some laughter, as we all learn from Moni in the ultimate "How Do We Deal?!" conversation. 

Our deepest gratitude to Moni for her time and openness in sharing. We love you, Moni! We are sending out into the universe a call and intention for science to find the right medications to keep you with us forever! And we can't emphasize this enough: F*CK CANCER!

Note: Metastatic breast cancer research is under-funded. While 30% of breast cancer patients will metasticize, only 2-5% of funding raised for breast cancer research goes to this form of the disease. To educate yourself or help fund research, see the links below.
