The documentary tells the unexpectedly funny and deeply human story of his father’s secret mission to help his wife—Justin’s mother—feel whole again after a unilateral mastectomy\, by quietly building a nipple prosthetic factory in their small-town basement.\n\n\n\nKailee McGee\, Filmmaker\, CAN \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKailee McGee is a filmmaker and writer who blurs the line between reality and fiction. Her work explores the intersections of life\, art\, connection\, and identity.

SUMMARY:Finding A New Normal: Helping Your Patients Manage Survivorship - Healthcare Professional Training
DESCRIPTION:Calling all healthcare providers! \nSharsheret’s Finding A New Normal: Helping Your Patients Manage Survivorship is a one hour interactive training that addresses the complicated transition from active treatment to ‘survivorship\,’ including the physical\, psychosocial\, and spiritual needs of patients.

She and her wife\, Marian\, split their time between Brooklyn and Upstate NY.
