Whether you’re struggling with the diagnosis, costs, logistics, a partner who is ill, or life beyond cancer, Macmillan is there to help. Sarah & Jeremy talk to Shelley Hindle, a Macmillan Breast Cancer Nurse Specialist in Cumbria, who explains how it works (for any cancer), how they can help, and how important it can be for some to call an expert - anonymously or not - for information and advice. Cancer can infiltrate every part of your life and the Macmillan Support Line will be there for you. We'd love to hear about your experiences with cancer, so if you want to share these, have any particular topics you'd like us to talk about, or even people you think we should be talking to, then get in touch.

We don’t want people to be put off the treatments we discuss. And often, believe it not, they’re not as bad as you may think. So that you know what to expect, Sarah and Jeremy talk frankly about their own experiences of surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and hormone therapy. And in a later episode they will talk to experts in detail about the pros and cons of each of the main cancer treatments available.

If you are feeling unsure or uninformed about treatments and worrying who to turn to for personal advice, next week we have Shelley, a Macmillan nurse, in the studio to talk about how the Macmillan Support Line can help you at this point of your journey.

A brief episode in which Sarah & Jeremy react to the amazing feedback & support they’ve had since launching the podcast, the story about them appeared in the Saturday Times Magazine, and the generosity of listeners and readers in sponsoring their upcoming Mighty Hike for Macmillan

In the second episode of How Long have you Got?, Sarah Edmundson and Jeremy Langmead discuss the difficulties of waiting to find out if you have cancer, the anxiety that comes with scans and biopsies, dealing with the well-meaning but sometimes overwhelming questions you get from family and friends, and coping when you face the actual diagnosis. Sometimes this can be one of the most difficult parts of the journey. Sarah and Jeremy will shared their experiences and insights with their usual mix of candour and humour.
