Kanawha County Precincts 109 and 107 at the Loudendale Community Center rock. It was great serving the state as a poll worker for the election and making new friends. And I found I could survive a whole day without internet, cell service, emails or texting. (But only for one day) https://t.co/0bNu1JC1oD — PolitiTweet.org

I’m practicing what I preach and what I ask others to do. I’m ready to be a poll worker tomorrow. I’ve picked up supplies and checked out the location. Now, I need voters to show up. See you there. #WV https://t.co/gSF1X9rMmv — PolitiTweet.org

A proud day as the renovated @KanawhaLibrary is reopened with so many open spaces, meeting opportunities and resources. You can even sign out tools, use a 3D printer or get a cup of coffee. Thanks to those who made it happen. https://t.co/lOoTTQdVEX — PolitiTweet.org

I know no better way to celebrate Mother’s Day and remember my mother than at the theater watching my daughter. They both love performing. She would have loved to see Delaney performing now with the Charleston Light Opera Guild. https://t.co/smyILfT9ZQ — PolitiTweet.org

Aromatase inhibitors lower estrogen levels by stopping an enzyme in fat tissue from changing other hormones into estrogen. Estrogen fuels the growth of breast cancer cells. Before surgery, I was prescribed Anastrozole (Arimidex) which I will take every day for the next 5 years. — PolitiTweet.org

Dr. Hafez explained aromatase therapy to me. She had my FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone) levels tested to see if I was in menopause or pre-menopause. My level was 94 which shows I’m right in the middle of menopause. That means I am a candidate for aromatase therapy. — PolitiTweet.org

To be honest, in the beginning, I wasn’t sure what role each doctor played. I thought Dr. Hazard-Jenkins would take me all the way through, but she consults with the oncologist who suggests treatment. Since I was having a mastectomy, we did not discuss radiation or chemotherapy. — PolitiTweet.org

When she said she likes to write on a board to explain diagnosis and treatments to patients, I knew I was going to like her. This gave me opportunities to ask questions or ask her to repeat information. (We should always do that- board or not) — PolitiTweet.org

I felt like I had been registered for a wrong class in college. But it was just my first oncology appointment with Dr. Maria Hafez. She’s not very tall, but her presence filled the room. https://t.co/8aOolpg1pN — PolitiTweet.org

Want to say thank you to @BrookeEAshby for her service as the alternate Mountaineer for the last 2 years. She played such a critical role by filling in and attending games, visiting schools and even cheering at the Pitt game. You have shown true class and character. https://t.co/ZjIKZOLxLQ — PolitiTweet.org

Mountaineer Nation is proud and strong as we welcome the new Mountaineer @WVUMascot Mary Roush at the Passing of the Rifle Ceremony. And say thank you to Colson Glover for his dedication and service. So great to have so many former Mountaineers back at our old stomping grounds. https://t.co/tJVYdCI6pP — PolitiTweet.org

The next appointments would be with an oncologist and plastic surgeon. If you need help with treatment, The West Virginia Breast and Cervical Cancer Screening Program (WVBCCSP) helps uninsured or underinsured women gain access to breast and cervical cancer screenings. — PolitiTweet.org

I was able to listen to the news and doze off during the half hour exam. The MRI found what we had expected. The mass made up nearly 9cm of the breast which is nearly 4 inches. The only option was a mastectomy of my left breast. No lumpectomy, no Harvard fellowship. — PolitiTweet.org

I set the alarm on my phone & ended up making 3 calls to get it moved up to less than a week. I am a little fearful of MRI’s so Dr. Hazard offered some valium which I took. Since the MRI was conducted on my stomach it did not feel as confining. — PolitiTweet.org

That’s when I got on the phone. I told the MRI scheduler I would be calling a lot to try and move up my appointment. It was during the Christmas holidays, and I felt there would be cancellations. He suggested I call in the afternoons and in the mornings to check for new openings. — PolitiTweet.org

The problem was, I was also on a deadline because I had the opportunity to participate in a semester long fellowship at Harvard. I had to let them know if I could accept. I did not want to accept before I knew the results on the MRI and had a treatment plan in place. — PolitiTweet.org

Doctors are great, they care about you and want you to get better. But there are a lot of us and we have to speak up. I needed a breast MRI to determine the type of treatment I would have, a lumpectomy or a mastectomy. The earliest I could get one was three weeks later. — PolitiTweet.org

Advocate for yourself. I can’t say this enough. What does it really mean? It means ask questions, even if they seem stupid; make follow up calls, read your medical reports, push for appointments. https://t.co/cmjIZ9G0l2 — PolitiTweet.org

My siblings and I take turns staying with him. Having my treatment in Morgantown made it easier to care for him. With my place of care set and my surgeon identified, the next decision was to prepare for the best way to treat the cancer. — PolitiTweet.org

And she will draw anywhere - from a blank sheet of paper to the pant leg of her scrubs. I decided to have my treatment at WVU for several reasons. I clicked with her, and she measured up to her reputation. I also had to consider my 93-year-old dad who lives in North Central WV. — PolitiTweet.org

She teaches medical students how to read patients and not just rely on what a patient says or asks. If a patient rolls their eyes, glances away, has a worried look, or seems confused, she changes her approach. She uses lots of drawings as she explains. https://t.co/EZ264yuNku — PolitiTweet.org

It’s been said ‘she has made cancer care in West Virginia – from research to patient care to education – her life’s work.’ You understand her passion when she talks to you. Granted, it felt like Dr. Hazard-Jenkins was speaking a foreign language. But she realizes that too. — PolitiTweet.org

I know it’s not always a good idea to search Google for medical advice. But before I met with Dr. Hannah Hazard-Jenkins, I Googled the heck out of her to see if she was as good as everyone was saying. — PolitiTweet.org

I want to make sure people do not feel bad asking for a second opinion. I did initially because I really connected with the CAMC surgeon who did the biopsy, Dr. Jade Gallimore. She supported a second opinion and her office set up the appointment with Dr. Hazard. — PolitiTweet.org
