Hi and a very warm welcome to the online community
I'm very sorry to read that you've recently been diagnosed with breast cancer and I can certainly understand why you'd want someone to come to your chemotherapy session with you.
I can see that you've already found and joined the breast cancer group and I'm sure if you post this question there someone will be able to help you. Clicking on the link I've created will take you straight there and you can post your question by selecting 'start a discussion'.

Hi and welcome to the Community.
The rules are changing by the day so you do need to contact your team and ask. Up in the North of Scotland folks are beginning to get visits etc but not in the COVID units obviously.
Ahh thanks very much il go on and have a look now
Thank you
