I started this season of my life as a member of the “suck it up or risk dying” generation. As a caretaker for my grandmother and mother, I bore witness to the devastation women and their families experience due to the lack of real science and options supporting our health. This all changed when I discovered Mary Claire Haver’s work. Today, I’m a proud member of the growing “get smart and strong” generation. Read the book, understand the research, carry the book with you to your doctor’s offiffice. And join us in demanding the research and medical care we deserve.
