Christmas can be a time of great joy but it can also trigger anxiety and stress.
Add a cancer diagnosis to the seasonal mix and we may need some help with our emotional responses.
FORCE Oncology Support Specialists Emma Ellis and Ali Ashby share some strategies for coping.
They have also compiled a list of organisations that may be able to offer help while our Support Centre is closed for the Christmas and New Year break from 4:30pm on Thursday December 23 until 9:30am on Tuesday January 4.
