Thank you to everyone who attended our Health & Wellbeing meeting this weekend.
We hope our guests found it worthwhile and of value to their cancer journey.
Dr Olinda Santin’s talk on Supportive Cancer Care was very beneficial to carers and we hope you’ll have a browse of her website and make use of the support it can offer – www.cancercaringcoping.com
Dr Declan Curtis had some wise words to share on coping with depression after a cancer diagnosis – “Don’t try to rise above being human.”
And finally, we said a big goodbye to Julie Hanna, one of our Clinical Nurse Specialists, who will be very missed following her recent retirement.
We would love to hear your feedback on this meeting. If you would like to pass it on, please email info@ogcancerni.com.

- Difficulty swallowing or food sticking
- Heartburn acid reflux
- Hiccupping that wont go away
- Unexplained weight loss.
