Just recently been advised that chemo is not working by professionals.

Dear Kenzie, I was sorry to read of the abrupt ending to your relationship with your consultant, this is a issue I have raised with my palliative care doctor at my local hospital. I have urged them to create a better way of transitioning patients from curative to palliative treatment by communicating better with their patients during treatment. I currently have a foot in both treatment and hospice care and at some point will transfer completely over to palliative care. You might be interested in the thread I created called “ how the hospice improved my quality of life” as the replies are very uplifting. I look forward to hearing your experiences with Marie curie.

best wishes

Hi

I am sorry to hear you’re on to the next stage of your journey. It’s good to see you be so positive about it. 
I think you make a really good point. I think we rely on our health professionals so much. I know I do. An abrupt goodbye must be really tough. So the idea of a transition would be really helpful for patients. 
I have been involved in some work around end of life services with Macmillan. Would you mind if I flagged up this idea with them? 
good luck as you move on

Hi Kenzie12, I was sorry to read the way in which you were dismissed from your consultant, they could make this a more positive experience I'm sure! Just wanted to say good luck on your continuing journey. I'm sure you will find Marie Curie a much better experience than you expect! Please do take a look at Jane's (Johnty's) post!
