Breast/chest cancer can take away a lot, but it can also give a lot. Spencer Hayward, a transgender man and survivor of invasive ductal (IDC) breast cancer, shares his journey from diagnosis to experiencing surgical frustrations and what it is like to receive gender-affirming care. The weight that lifted after his double mastectomy was physical and Spencer shares an amazing moment where his nurse recognized him as a man. His life mottos are spreading joy, kindness, and grace to others. Spencer emphasized the importance of allowing individuals in the LGBTQIA+ community to live fully and authentically in their truth. The conversation turned philosophical as we discussed empathy and acknowledging one's struggles. In the words of Elton John, Spencer is still standing.
