Is Breast Cancer a Joke?

Nov 19, 2025 10:35:00 AM / by Andrew L. Brewer, MS, NBHWC

It has been said that humor is the best medicine. And of course, breast cancer is not a joke!  Accomplished author Cara Lockwood encourages those affected by a breast cancer diagnosis to find levity to help navigate through this journey in her new book "There's No Good Book for This (But I Wrote One Anyway) - The Irreverent Guide to Crushing Breast Cancer." Cara joins the Healthcare Insights in Northwest North Carolina podcast to share her story and insights from her own battle with breast cancer, and how she still managed to find humor in the process. Listen to the episode below or search "Healthcare Insights in Northwest North Carolina" wherever you listen to podcasts and click on episode 139.

Healthcare professionals may also be interested in attending the 20th Annual Breast Cancer Symposium on January 16th in Winston-Salem. This long-standing activity provides participants with the latest developments in multidisciplinary fields that treat and care for breast cancer patients.
