'You're looking well. You know where I am if you need anything...' 

All statements with the best of intentions from a good place.  But they are statements. They're not questions. We accidentally close the conversation down by never having a conversation in the first place. Didn't mean to, didn't want to upset you any more, is perhaps the thinking.

Sharron Moffat will tell you there isn't necessarily a right or a wrong way to have that conversation. But it would be great if that patient - and we must never forget the caregiver - had a safe space to hear 'I bet this is really challenging for you. How are you feeling..?'

So...what do I say to a cancer patient and the caregiver..?
