In this episode, Kensi interviews Danet about her journey this year since April 2025 with an FDA approved treatment called Hepzato Kit - a treatment of chemo to the entire liver that is unique to her cancer only so far. (hopefully one day it'll be used to treat other types of cancer in the liver too!)
Tune in to hear about her experiences so far (2 treatments in) and also her recovery, some of the things she's learned to advocate for, and more.
