Скачать или смотреть Cancer and pregnancy: Nellie's Story | Macmillan Cancer Support

Three months after giving birth, Nellie was diagnosed with breast cancer.

She reflects on the lack of information surrounding cancer and pregnancy, and how she navigated the difficulties of being unable to identify with cancer resources, particularly the lack of representation for radiotherapy on black skin.

Nellie’s story highlights how cancer can disrupt your whole life, and impact far more than your health. She’s one of many incredible individuals we see every day who are leading active, meaningful lives while living with and beyond cancer.

Our campaign – Whoever You Are, Whatever It Takes – is shining a light on what it really means to be living with a cancer diagnosis in the UK today and encouraging more people to access accurate information and support.
