On the 5th of November 2016 saw Advanced Breast Cancer Group hold the regular Workshop for Women, Partners, Families and Friends. The workshop was a great success with many members and their family attending.
The day featured Dr Vikram Jain, a medical oncologist at the Mater Cancer Care Centre. Dr Jain gave a brief talk, and answered questions about the disease and treatment. This was followed by a viewing of the upcoming Advanced Breast Cancer Group DVD.
After lunch was a creative session to further discuss the new DVD that is currently in production.
Thank you to all those who attended and were involved in the organisation of such a great workshop.
Managing Paperwork
Keep a history of your illness. Include dates of scans and results, as you will be asked these dates often. Ask your oncologist to explain what the results of investigations and tests mean.
