Caring for friends and family with cancer was hard .

But feel I want too work and help people with cancer but has been a rollercoaster since losing my family members too cancer which I cared for but with help and dedication of Macmillan nurses and carers made it better too cope emotionally.

How nice to hear that the nurses looked after you so well - although I’m sorry you needed them.

Giving something back is, I think, an important part of coping with loss and finding a new way in the world. Are you looking for ways you can get involved in volunteering with Macmillan? There are lots of volunteer roles - for example I am a community champion and I help welcome people to this community. If you are interested in finding a role that might suit you, then do check out opportunities on your “my Macmillan” page.

I hope you find the way to give back that suits you, helps you make sense of your loss and maybe helps you find some new friends.
