I love my subscribers! Thanks Stephanie for joining the fight. Keep sending those selfies. In the mean time, there are five simple things you can do to help your family member while they are going through cancer treatment.
Write any questions down you may have so you don't forget them.
Cancer is a bough breaking experience. Be prepared for changes in your loved one's behavior and mood.
Don't burn yourself out. Ask other family members and/or friends to help out and of course with your loved one's permission.
Encourage them to do as much as they can for themselves. Certainly don't make them fill guilty if they don't feel up to doing much of anything.
Give them the space needed to process all that is happening. It's a lot to take in as well as endure.
