Learning about a loved one’s cancer diagnosis can be devastating and many will struggle to find the support they need during this difficult time.
The carer can often be overlooked, however, they need support as well as the individual battling cancer. Maggie’s is a cancer support charity in the UK that is also growing internationally.
Its new campaign ‘You Care, We Care’ shares stories about the caretakers of those with cancer. One of their ambassadors, Charles, shared his story about caring for his husband.
Charles and Martin have been together for 15 years and Martin’s cancer diagnosis came only five years into their relationship.
