Hello, Everyone,
Please read the tribute to Dr. Elizabeth Tarira on Living with Breast Cancer, a blog written by Hester Hill Schnipper, program manager for Oncology Social Work at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center.
Hester is a breast cancer survivor who came to know Dr. Tarira through Better Healthcare for Africa. She and her husband, Dr. Lowell Schnipper, clinical director of the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center Cancer Center, are collaborating with BHA and with St. Albert’s Mission Hospital and Muvonde Mission Hospital to develop and support a cervical cancer screening and education initiative at the two hospitals.
