Thanks to all of you who replied -- it is comforting to know that my feelings are shared . Should we label ourselves as carers or as I once introduced myself when attending a support group--I am the other half living with someone who is living with cancer-- perhaps then the health professionals will see us in a different light
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
