A gentle, practical guide to navigating chemotherapy—written for real life, real emotions, and real people.

Whether you're facing your first treatment or supporting someone who is, Caring Through Chemotherapy offers clear, compassionate guidance through every stage of the experience. From packing your chemo bag to managing side effects, talking to others, and rebuilding life after treatment, this book delivers the support that too often gets left out of clinical conversations.

Written by a scientist, survivor, and founder of Cancer Care Parcel, this guide brings together lived wisdom, expert insights, and trusted resources—so you never feel like you're facing it alone.

Inside you’ll find:

• What to expect before, during, and after chemotherapy

• Gentle coping strategies for fatigue, nausea, and emotional overwhelm

• Tools and comfort items that actually help

• Communication tips and boundary-setting advice

• Support for caregivers, friends, and loved ones

• Recovery routines, survivorship insights, and ideas for moving forward

• Dozens of links to free resources, guides, communities, and checklists

This is not a story about being brave. It’s a book about being human—and how to stay supported through one of life’s most difficult experiences.

Perfect for:

• Patients preparing for or currently undergoing chemotherapy

• Families and caregivers looking for guidance

• Oncology nurses, social workers, and support organisations

• Anyone who wants to help but doesn’t know how

If you’re looking for a chemo guide that offers both honesty and hope, this book was written for you.
