As part of our summer programming, we are releasing special full interviews from Season 2. Here Host Lisa Laudico speaks with Shirley Mertz, who is the President of the MBC Network, a founding member of the MBC Alliance, and the most recent former Chair of the MBC Alliance. Shirley received a diagnosis of metastatic breast cancer in 2003, twelve years after being treated for DCIS. After seeking training in the biology of breast cancer and political advocacy, she became a consumer reviewer for Susan G. Komen and the DOD Breast Cancer Research Program and advocate for national health care reform.
