I wrote Living with The Long Term Effects Of Cancer to highlight and explore this under- discussed and thorny subject and to try to signpost a way forward.

Thank you, Claire. Indeed! I’ll be writing more in order to use the wealth of comments this survey generated, since there is little literature I am aware of on the drivers of fear of #FOCRAP. I also hope focrap.co.uk/index.html will be a forum for discussion of these issues. 🤞

Thank you very much Lesley Smith 💙 for this helpful comment about my article on my survey results on fear of cancer recurrence (FOCRAP) focrap.co.uk/index.html- ‘Excellent article Cordelia, many congratulations and thank you for your work on this very under recognised issue 👏👍’

amazon.co.uk/Aftermath-Copi… This is a book that validates the experiences and suffering of those coping with cancer’s long term effects- many of us! As far as I am aware, the only one of its kind. If anyone knows of others, please add to this thread. focrap.co.uk

bmj.com/content/384/bm…. Here I go again, now in the BMJ, highlighting how many of us suffer, often silently, long term fear of recurrence. This time not from my dual perspective. Please pass on. Rhea Crighton 🧡🦋❤️ Rachel Holland Lesley Smith 💙 Dr Liz O'Riordan focrap.co.uk

"It wasn’t until I started talking to others who were living beyond or still with cancer that I slowly started to realise I wasn’t as alone as I felt" .Dr Cordelia Galgut talks about how important it is to validate fear of #cancer recurrence and progression bmj.com/content/384/bm…

bmj.com/content/384/bm… Couldn’t agree with DrSueCruickshank more about needing to see #FCR through a different lens now. Absolutely essential, in order to get a much better understanding of patient experience, and thereby, the way forward. RT please. focrap.co.uK

And all these years out from diagnosis, although I’m more familiar with the terror, it is still there. Please let’s try and understand this psychological reality better than we do. So many of us are thankfully living on after a diagnosis but for many it remains a tough old time!

‘My cancer made me a better therapist – so why do we live in the shadows?’ Dr Cordelia Galgut asks: Is colleagues’ lived experience of cancer believed, valued and used enough within our profession? bps.org.uk/psychologist/m…

Please retweet. My latest piece in The Psychologist on the need to listen and really hear those of us who have lived experience of cancer. bps.org.uk/psychologist/m…

Anyone who’s had/is having cancer treatment will know it’s a really long multi-staged haul for most of us. It’s so helpful that the P&P of Wales are both making that point, instead of putting out unrealistic messages about what having cancer is really like. My heart goes them. 👏

BBC Radio 4 Today Lesley Smith 💙 And unfortunately, as I know well, having been diagnosed at 48, with survival rates having improved, many more of us will be living on with long term effects, so we need more of a focus on this reality, too!!

Joined X 13 yrs ago and things have indeed moved on a bit re better understanding of the emotional effects of cancer. Not enough though and still miles and miles to go re even the most basic understanding of the long term effects. Let’s speak out more! 🙏 amazon.co.uk/Aftermath-Copi…
