At the end of 2019 I was diagnosed with cancer. It was a shock to say the least, I have no idea of the best way to handle it, also didn’t feel I was prepared in any way.
The reason the blog is called ‘We Need to Talk About Cancer’ is because whoever I talk to about this never seems comfortable with the subject. Friends mean well and really try to help but what they say sometimes just seems to have the opposite effect, even some healthcare professionals get it horribly wrong.
These are just my random thoughts on the subject, how I attempt to handle the condition I now have and some of my experiences. Maybe it will help me get things off my chest (no pun intended) maybe it will help someone reading it – who knows?
