What Can I Do to Help? by Deborah Hutton
Last November, Deborah Hutton discovered that the irritating cough she had had for two months was no trivial chest infection but in fact an aggressive carcino-adenoma that had already spread well beyond her lungs...What struck her, as she struggled to cope in the weeks following, was how difficult it was for everyone around her to deal with her news. They all wanted to help, to say the right thing. Yet somehow, all too often, their best attempts at kindness proved more debilitating than comforting. The grim reality of cancer is that life, with all its myriad demands, continues: the dog still needs walking, the daily meals need preparing and dishing up. "What can I do to help?" you ask. Well, stand by, because the answer is: plenty.
"Cancer is the biggest killer of our times, and yet remains one of the last great taboosWhat should you do, or say, when a friend is diagnosed? Finally, here, help is at hand." Susan Howell
Deborah Hutton is a journalist and writer. She lives in north London with her family.
