Pat Washburn Interview

Men can get breast cancer, too

This is an interview with Pat Washburn, a quite energetic lady who unfortunately lost her husband Marlyn to male breast cancer a few years ago. Pat and Marlyn knew nothing about this kind of cancer before his diagnosis. Most of us guys don’t.

Pat is a woman of uplifting faith and apparently endless energy. Listen to her story.
