Suddenly, you have to take on the role of a caregiver – providing daily assistance, as well as emotional and mental support for your loved one living with cancer. What happens if you are faced with three of your family members being diagnosed with cancer within 10 months? This is the story of Dr Azlan Kamaludin, who has written a book ‘3 Cancers in 10 Months’. He joins us to share his experience throughout this difficult journey and how his role as a doctor shaped his caregiving responsibilities.
