ASK DR. SHERI®

“Is swelling the only sign of lymphedema?”

No.

Visible swelling may be what many people associate with lymphedema, but changes can be more subtle.

Some people may first notice sensations such as heaviness, tightness, fullness or aching—or changes in how clothing, jewelry or a watch fits.

The important message isn't to become fearful of every sensation after breast cancer treatment.

It's to know your body, understand your individual risk and speak with your healthcare team when you notice a persistent change.

Early awareness begins with knowing what deserves your attention.

This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, let's make lymphedema education part of survivorship education.

Sometimes impact looks enormous.

And sometimes it looks like one compression garment reaching one survivor who needs it.

For someone living with cancer-related lymphedema, that garment isn't an accessory. It's part of managing a chronic condition that can remain long after cancer treatment ends.

At LIVE Today, we believe meaningful change happens one person at a time.

One survivor who doesn't have to choose between a medically necessary garment and another expense.

One person who knows someone sees what survivorship still requires.

One barrier removed.

During Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we're grateful for every person who helps us turn awareness into something tangible.

đź’› This is hope in action.

Pink creates visibility.

But what will we do with the attention?

At LIVE Today, we believe awareness is most powerful when it moves us toward action.

For an under-resourced breast cancer survivor living with lymphedema, action can look remarkably practical:

A properly fitted compression sleeve.

A glove.

A gauntlet.

A nighttime garment.

Something medically necessary that she needs to help manage a chronic consequence of the cancer treatment that helped save her life.

That's where you can enter the story.

Your financial support helps LIVE Today continue providing medically necessary compression garments at no cost to eligible cancer patients and survivors experiencing financial hardship.

This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, don't only wear the ribbon.

There is a part of survivorship that doesn't always fit neatly beneath a pink ribbon.

The world sees someone who beat cancer.

The survivor may see a body she is still learning to understand.

Both can be true.

Cancer treatment can change how someone looks, feels, moves, works and experiences her own body.

And when lymphedema becomes part of that story, adaptation can continue long after everyone else believes the cancer journey has ended.

That's why we created Survivor Voices.

Not every survivor wants to tell her story publicly.

But the experiences shared quietly with us deserve to inform how we support this community.

This October, let's make room for more than triumphant stories.

Let's make room for truthful ones.

ASK DR. SHERI®

“What does breast cancer have to do with the lymphatic system?”

More than many survivors realize.

The lymphatic system is part of the body's network for moving lymph fluid and supporting immune function. Breast cancer treatment can involve lymph nodes and lymphatic vessels, and disruption or damage to that system can contribute to the development of lymphedema.

That's why understanding the lymphatic system belongs in conversations about breast cancer survivorship.

We spend a great deal of October teaching people about breasts.

This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, let's teach survivors something about the lymphatic system, too.

Knowledge isn't about creating fear.

It's about giving survivors information they can use to advocate for themselves.

đź’› Save this post and share it with someone whose breast cancer treatment may be behind them.

She survived.

Those may be two of the most beautiful words anyone touched by cancer can hear.

But they shouldn't end the conversation.

Because sometimes cancer leaves—and consequences of treatment remain.

For some breast cancer survivors, one of those consequences is lymphedema: a chronic condition that can develop after lymph nodes or lymphatic vessels are affected by cancer treatment.

Survival deserves celebration.

But celebrating survival should never require us to pretend that survivorship is easy.

This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, LIVE Today is making room for the whole story.

The diagnosis.
The treatment.
The survival.
And what comes afterward.

Because survivors deserve more than applause for surviving.

They deserve support for living.

Tomorrow begins Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Pink will appear everywhere.

Buildings will glow pink. Ribbons will be worn. Stories will be shared.

And all of that visibility has value.

But at LIVE Today, we're asking our community to go one step further this October.

Let's make awareness about what happens after breast cancer, too.

For some survivors, treatment leaves behind a lifelong condition called lymphedema.

It may affect an arm, hand, breast or other area. It can change how someone dresses, works, travels, sleeps and moves through everyday life.

And many people still know remarkably little about it.

So this October, we'll wear the pink.

But we're also going to talk beyond the pink.

Stay with us. There is more to the breast cancer story.

Cancer treatment has a finish line on the calendar.

Survivorship doesn't.

Long after appointments become less frequent and life is expected to return to “normal,” some survivors are still adapting to what treatment left behind.

New challenges.
New expenses.
New questions.
New ways of caring for a body that has been through something extraordinary.

At LIVE Today, much of our work happens in that space—the part of the cancer journey that continues after so many people have stopped watching.

Because completing treatment should never mean completing support.

đź’› We haven't stopped seeing you.

Not everyone who believes in a mission will support it in the same way.

And that's okay.

Some people give.

Some volunteer.

Some introduce us to a potential partner.

Some share our posts.

Some tell a survivor about us.

Some open our newsletter and learn something they later pass along to someone else.

All of it helps build the community around this mission.

As LIVE Today continues to grow, we want more people inside that circle—not simply as donors, but as people who believe cancer survivors deserve access, dignity and support.

So here's our invitation:

Find your place in the mission.

Follow. Share. Join our community. Volunteer. Give when you can.

Because changing someone's life doesn't always begin with a big gesture.

Sometimes it begins with simply deciding, “I want to help.” 💛

There is something profoundly different about giving when you can understand what your generosity makes possible.

At LIVE Today, financial support helps us provide medically necessary compression garments to eligible cancer patients and survivors living with lymphedema who otherwise may struggle to afford them.

A sleeve.
A glove.
A gauntlet.
A nighttime garment.
Compression for the leg or other affected area.

These aren't luxuries.

They are part of managing a chronic condition.

So when you support LIVE Today, you're helping us put something tangible into the hands—and onto the bodies—of people who need it.

If you've been looking for a meaningful way to stand with cancer survivors, consider supporting our garment program.

💛 Every gift helps us continue saying, “Yes, we can help.”
