This is Cancer- Episode 21: Stage 4 Endometrial Cancer at 41: “You Have Cancer; It Doesn’t Have You”

The early symptoms were not clear. But after feeling “off” for a few days after traveling internationally, Candice took herself to the ER. Soon after that, she was diagnosed with Stage 4 endometrial cancer. She was just 41. With the guidance and expertise of Washington University gynecologic oncologist Dr. Premal Thaker, Candice welcomes each day, meeting it with unrelenting tenacity and spirit.

Dr. Thaker shares about the rise of endometrial cancers in the U.S. (and globally) and discusses the red flag every postmenopausal woman needs to know. Listen to Candice’s story and witness the powerful bond between patient and doctor with a common goal: fueling life with hope while facing cancer.
