About suggestions
When someone is diagnosed with cancer, life changes for them, their family and their friends. Life also changes for you, the carer.
A carer is an unpaid person who helps the patient with cancer. A carer could be a family member, partner, friend or neighbour. Nowadays patients spend less time in hospitals and more time at home, so carers are also important members of the medical or healthcare team.
