👏So important! Endometrial biopsies can be painful so doing them together while sedated alleviates that, plus 1 less appointment is also a win. Thanks UCSF🙌

Yes, absolutely there needs to be increased awareness. Knowing about Lynch Syndrome saves lives!

Here are two key strategies for those with Lynch Syndrome to reduce cancer risks! 💙👉 Daily aspirin may reduce colorectal cancer risk by ~50% (Capp2 Study). 👉 Consuming 30g of resistant starch (oatmeal, beans, bananas) can lower upper GI cancer risks by 60%+.

Did you know skin cancer is the most common cancer worldwide? Winter warriors, don’t forget your sunscreen! ❄️ Snow reflects 80% of UV rays, and higher altitudes make sun damage even worse. Sunscreen can cut melanoma risk by 50%!

March is National Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month! This Virtual Town Hall by the University of California San Francisco is open to all, not just those with a high risk family history or Lynch Syndrome. Register to learn to prevent and lower your risk now.

🧬 Today, March 22, is #LynchSyndromeAwarenessDay! Did you know that Lynch Syndrome is the most common hereditary cancer syndrome and raises the risk of colorectal & endometrial cancers? Sadly, most people (95%) are unaware until after cancer diagnosis. #LynchSyndrome

On #LynchSyndromeAwarenessDay, we honor Jacqueline’s memory. At 23, she lost her life because we didn’t know Lynch Syndrome ran in our family. Her kindness and mission to impact others live on. 💚 Share the knowledge about Lynch Syndrome to help save lives.

Lynch Syndrome is surprisingly common but mostly unknown! Only 2 out of every 100 people with it are diagnosed. We MUST change this statistic! 💜 Around 1.2 million people in the US are living with Lynch Syndrome, but many don’t know they have it until after cancer strikes.

From my garden to yours. Enjoy all that nature brings. Happy Earth Day! ~ Joan Rush

Happy National DNA Day! 🧬 On this day, we celebrate the groundbreaking discoveries in genetics that have paved the way for personalized medicine and understanding of inherited diseases. #NationalDNADay #Genetics #liveinyourgenes #lynchsyndrome #lynchsyndromeawareness

We attended AACR in Chicago and were present when the results of this study were presented. These results of the study are very exciting for the Lynch Syndrome community. To learn more about the study visit the link in our bio. #cancerinterception #LynchSyndrome

Happy Mother’s Day 💐 “A mother is not defined by the number of children you can see, but by the love she holds in her heart.” ~ Francesca Cox Thinking of all for whom this day is joyful, painful, or both. You are seen. 💜 ~ Joan Rush, Jacqueline’s mom

As National Hereditary Cancer Week comes to a close, we’re reflecting on the amazing research that has happened in Lynch Syndrome since the Jacqueline Rush Foundation started. Since 2015 when the Foundation was founded, our motto has always been to “Live in Your Genes.”
