I was diagnosed with breast cancer in May 2021, and I started chemotherapy at the Laurel suite in November.
I was really worried about having the treatment and was booked to have the cold cap. I changed my mind at the last minute and decided I was taking back my life from cancer.
The nurses were amazing, a lovely, very organised team. A small unit, which I think for me helped me overcome my fear of chemotherapy.
My first treatment was E/C and went well. One of the nurses, sat with me all the way through to the end. I felt okay after and went home until my next three weekly cycle. I had my bloods done on a Friday and my treatment on a Monday.
The unit was very clean and the staff very caring and really looked after you nothing was to much trouble. I received a sandwich for lunch and a cup of tea.
Well done to the laurel suite staff you were amazing 👏 thank you
