The NHS is utterly failing my nephew, who is very unwell with Neuroblastoma. I’m looking to chat to anyone, from anywhere in the world, who has knowledge and experience in fighting this rare cancer.

I rarely ask for promotion but I’m rather at a loss, so please, consider giving this a boost if you feel able.

I'm sorry about the cancer that is afflicting your nephew. I can't help directly. I'm a cancer survivor myself. Mine was a PCNS lymphoma. Lymphomas are not rare, but the PCNS kind is rare. The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society in the US paired me with another patient who had the same cancer that I had. It might be worth looking into such a service for your nephew.

You probably already know how to support your nephew, but if there's anyone who needs to know how to be a true friend, I'd suggest pointing them to this article of mine:

How To Be A True Friend To Someone Who Has A Cancer Diagnosis

How to listen to their suffering without judgment, or a desire to rectify things.
