Hello everyone - caring for a loved one with breast cancer

Hello, I’m a partner of someone currently undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer. We’re navigating treatment, finances, and life changes, and I’m hoping to connect with others who understand the caregiver side of this journey. Thank you for having me.

  • Hello OssifiedRhombus and welcome to the Cancer Chat community.

    I'm very sorry to hear your partner was diagnosed with breast cancer and is currently having chemotherapy. This must be a very difficult time for you both but I'm glad you've reached out to us as we have many members here on the forum who have been diagnosed or supported someone with breast cancer, so you are not alone, and hopefully you will receive some support and advice from them soon.

    I hope this information we have about breast cancer and how to support someone with cancer will be useful, but if you have any other questions or concerns you'd like to discuss with one of our cancer nurses, you can do so by making a new post in their section of the forum called ask the nurses. With their knowledge and insight they will do all they can to give you any further information or advice you are seeking at this time.

    We're sending you all our support OssifiedRhombus and wishing your partner all the best with their treatment. We hope it is a success and that they don't experience too many side effects.

    Best wishes to you both,

    Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
