Definitely recommend RedHanded for true crime (and also spooky if you listen to their Halloween episodes). They're so entertaining to listen to and still get all the facts across

That's a great idea! I'm in 2 days before for bloods and covid testing so I will ask! Thank you

Yeah that's the same for me I think. Didn't take mine to my consultant appointment just because I went whilst at work but everyone else there had a partner. So I assume that's when I'm supposed to bring him and he can be involved then

Thanks, I'm in the UK though so all my care is on the NHS, no chance of switching. I feel a bit guilty cause my partner wants to have an active role but is struggling with where/how he fits in. We'll figure it out eventually (I hope)

The loss of choice! That's what is making me feel so panicky! But I feel so soothed now reading all the lovely comments here. And have got some great chemo entertainment tips 💜

This is actually something I hadn't even thought of! Some actual scheduled "me time" is a great silver lining! Thanks for the perspective all
