From people who came through it
“I was right where you are not that long ago, about a year. It was waiting four weeks for scan results and I couldn't see past it. I can talk about it now without falling apart. It comes back slowly, like feeling in your fingers after the cold.”
Mason W · been through living with cancer“For whoever is where I was: A few years back, that was me. For me it was scanxiety before every check. I went on holiday in the summer and actually relaxed. It comes back slowly, like feeling in your fingers after the cold.”
Night shift nurse in São Paulo · been through living with cancer“I was in the same place this time last year. The taste of metal in everything, every single day. This week I went back to my evening class. The bad days get further apart.”
Margarita I · been through living with cancer“When I was first diagnosed, I didn't know what to say to my kids. I still don't have all the answers. What helped was small steps: a walk, a phone call, a nap. Don't rush to tell everyone. Take your time. The wig can wait. The tears come when they come. Just keep showing up for the next thing, even if it's just a cup of tea.”
