Care changes lives and so can you.

"Nancy's care changed our lives"

Jade had just finished supporting her mum through breast cancer when she was diagnosed herself. Four months later, her husband David, “stole her limelight” when he too was diagnosed with cancer.

But while Jade was supported by McGrath Cancer Care Nurse, Nancy Scott, David didn’t have the care of a specialised cancer nurse.

“My doctors were brilliant, and I could ask anything I wanted, but it’s different to have someone you can call on anytime,” says David.
