Hello dear members,

While the Coronavirus epidemic concerns many across the UK (and Carenity members too), this I've created this discussion to allow you to talk specifically about the virus in the context of cancer, as we all know that patients can be weakened by their treatments.

Have you had any special instructions from your doctor regarding your care? Are you going to limit your travel? Do you have any advice for others?

Take care,

Courtney

@viking47 Hello viking47! Thank you for keeping us updated. Fingers crossed for you that it all goes well. Please let us know how you're doing as your radiotherapy progresses if you're feeling up to it!

Take care,

Courtney

Good morning everyone,

How are you today? emoticon cute

How are you managing your cancer now? Have you returned to a "normal life" after these few months of lockdown? Have you been able to reschedule or resume your regular treatments?

Feel free to share! We are all here to help each other!

Take care,
Courtney
