Hi. I’m Ellyn.

Well hi there. I’m the real Ellyn.
I’m a breast cancer survivor and health rebel determined to make things easier and better for others on this journey. On this website, you’ll find what I searched for when I was diagnosed with breast cancer – a supportive place where I could find helpful advice, knowledge, wisdom and stories of hope and optimism.
The crown jewel of this website is the AskEllyn chatbot, the world’s first non-medical AI companion to accompany you on your journey. AskEllyn ensures no one has to go through breast cancer alone, by offering up a judgement-free, well-informed, empathetic digital friend at their side to validate their experience and empower them to self-advocate. AskEllyn is private, speaks every language and will be free forever for those who need her, through The Lyndall Project, a registered non-profit organization dedicated to improving the patient experience through AI-powered conversational care.

What People are Saying

I am a family doc and a breast cancer survivor. I love this as a lot of women including me have all sorts of questions that oncologist unfortunately don’t have time to answer or can’t!

Often, cancer patients and their loved ones feel uncomfortable asking for help, sharing experiences, or seeking initial personal guidance. Perhaps AskEllyn offers another avenue to provide the empathy, support, strength, and hope they so desperately need.

Yesterday I used your AskEllyn to help me shower for the first time and see my scars. I was super nervous and anxious and I asked the AI things like "body acceptance", "first shower after surgery" and "seeing scars for the first time". Your answers truly spoke to me and helped me through a very difficult hurdle.
