Hi. So, our family started this Cancer journey on February, 2014. Along the journey, we have learn some curves that helps us along the journey. I am writing this from a sister/caretaker aka sidekick perspective.
When my brother was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukimia (AML) on February, we decided that I am going to be the main caretaker for Andrew. It makes sense since I just started my career and Andrew was diagnosed in Sydney, Australia -the country that I spent three years of my life in. Still, it was not an easy journey so far.
A couple of months in, we start to find out some stuff that works and some stuff that doesn't. As I was talking to some friends and family as they were asking the usual "how-are-things" and they keep on bugging me to write some stuff down.
I am not a medical professional. I am a chaplain but currently I am a full-time caretaker of my brother. I will try to write this as honest as possible, from the point of view of someone who do not have cancer but helping someone who does going through the journey. This blog is based on my experience, which may not be applicable to everyone. I hope that we can learn together as the journey goes. Enjoy :)
