To get a better understanding of breast cancer care in Canada, Healthing reached out MJ DeCoteau, Founder and Executive Director ofThis interview was conducted over email. I would say, in many ways, Canada is doing very well in cancer care. That said, having worked in this field for two decades, I have seen the gap between Canada and the U.S. — and between Canada and many parts of Europe — widen in terms of access to new innovative cancer treatments. It worries me.Screening for breast cancer is an important part of the continuum of care and, at times, can seem to overshadow the treatment and supportive care that are critical in improving patients’ outcomes.
Processing this reality of a life-limiting diagnosis, like metastatic breast cancer, is extremely difficult — especially for the young patients in our community. The emotional impacts on quality of life are intense. Many develop brain metastasis, which is difficult to treat and has a heavy symptom burden with both physical impacts and often changes in mood, personality and thinking.
