Exploring emotions, blood cancer and you

Recorded as part of Blood Cancer Month 2022, we discuss and explore some of the common reactions and experiences that accompany life with blood cancer. These might impact our emotions, adjustment, relationships, expectations, and wellbeing.

Challenges can change how you think and feel about yourself and your life, no matter how long youโ€™ve been living with blood cancer or what stage of life youโ€™re at.

Topics discussed:

  • Fear of recurrence or progression
  • Practical strategies for managing these common experiences
