Accompanied by my husband at every treatment, I wore cooling caps during each chemotherapy session. Of course, it requires a lot of commitment, but it works. Thanks to this support, I was able to continue living my life, be present for my family, and even allow myself small getaways during treatment. One of the most powerful moments was being able to accompany my son to his first day of school without other parents knowing that, just the day before, I had been in treatment.
