October is Breast Cancer Awareness month and to highlight the support available at Charis Cancer Care, we will be running a series of client testimonials during the month.
Today, Louise Taylor from Moneymore shares her story:
“‘I was diagnosed with BRAC 2 mutation in March 2025. Being diagnosed with the BRCA2 gene mutation and facing a preventative double mastectomy was one of the most frightening and emotional experiences of my life. Charis Cancer Care supported me throughout my journey with counselling and holistic therapies, giving me a safe space to talk, process my emotions and find some peace during such a difficult time. Their kindness, compassion and support helped me feel less alone, and I will always be incredibly grateful for everything they did for me.”
