In our first episode of ‘Staying Abreast’, host Aileen Hickie interviews Aisling Keogh, a Galway native and former hockey umpire, about her journey with breast cancer. Diagnosed shortly after her wedding in January 2018, Aisling shares her life before the diagnosis, the importance of body awareness, and the challenges she faced during treatment. The conversation highlights the significance of early detection, family health history, and self-compassion. Aisling discusses her treatment experiences, including chemotherapy, surgery, and radiotherapy, and emphasises the need for a supportive network. The episode also features insights from Professor Michael Kerin, Director of the National Breast Cancer Research Institute, on advancements in breast cancer research.
