Take a moment and make it count

Whether you are living with or know somebody living with breast cancer (BC), this website is dedicated to giving you support and knowledge to have better, more informed conversations with your healthcare professionals.

It's the everyday moments that matter for people living with breast cancer. Whether it's what you'd consider a good day, or a bad one. Appointments with your oncologist where you learn something new about your condition, or yourself, count. Days where you find the strength to get out of bed, if only to sit up and read for a while, count. The evenings spent with loved ones, after a tough day you took head on, count. Every seemingly insignificant moment; a cup of tea or a smile, counts. Every single second of every single day, counts.

Moments That Count has been developed to support patients, family and friends of those living with BC, whatever stage of the journey they are on.

You know you best

Make your next appointment count

Your healthcare team is your best resource throughout your treatment. Talk openly and often with them about your doubts, questions and concerns. It might make you feel more in control if you take some time to plan for your appointment. Making notes before, during and after can help you retain information and make the most of your visits. We have developed a guide to support you in having these conversations with some tips to help you get the information you need.
