Our Macmillan nurses specialise in the whole family approach to cancer.They do all the practical things a patient might need plus take time to talk to all the family members involved give advice and help and best of all provide a shoulder to cry on for mum dads wives children and girl friends.They are on call 24hours a day and forge links with the family that last long after their work is done.If the patient gets better thats great but they are also trained in helping families through when there is nothing further the doctors can do.These Nurses are truly angels,and i wish i could wing one to you so that you had someone talk to ( even if george didnt want to)
