What's Hidden Behind the Pink Ribbon

The Brian Lehrer Show | Oct 18, 2023

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, but often, the act of becoming more aware is simplified to sporting a pink ribbon.  Rebecca Weiss, senior listener services associate at New York Public Radio and founder of Bob's Boxes, a 501c3 nonprofit that sends post-mastectomy care packages to women with breast cancer -- and listeners -- shed light on aspects of the experience of the disease that are not often discussed, but patients and survivors of breast cancer wish we all knew.
