Hi Zoe,

I am sorry to hear about your nanny’s lung cancer. It is a very tiring condition and especially as she is going through treatment. If you wish you could contact the Irish Cancer Society’s specialist nurses and they will talk you through your concerns and direct you towards further support and resources. Our Freefone Helpline 1800 200 700 is open from Monday to Thursday from 9am -7pm and Fridays from 9am -5pm.

I hope this is of some help.

With best wishes,
Cancer Information Service Nurse.
