Q&A with Australian Health Practitioners
Radiation Therapy Exposure
Related Topic
My husband has just been diagnosed with bowel cancer. He is only 32 years old. We have a 14-month-old daughter and I am currently pregnant with our second. There is a possibility he has to have radiation therapy to shrink the cancer before removal. Does anyone know if there are going to be any issues with myself and my daughter being near him at any point because of this? I would like to be there for him as much as possible. -
