In this episode, we spoke with a mother-daughter advocacy duo who has set out to help other families facing a cancer journey.

Following their own journey with breast cancer, a mother-daughter duo has set out to help other families navigate the difficulties associated with a cancer diagnosis.

In this week’s episode of CURE Talks Cancer, we spoke with two-time breast cancer survivor Kimberly Jewett and her daughter, Kalli, about their experiences, and how they’ve used their journey to help other families during this difficult time.

The advocacy duo offers advice for both parents and children dealing with a cancer diagnosis, and discusses a new app, called the Magic Tree, to help during these challenging times.
