In these videos Dr Joan Carlini talks with Ms Julia Robertson (person with a brain cancer) and Ms Catherine (carer) about ways to offer practical help to people affected by brain tumours and how to accept it. The first video addresses topics such as providing assistance with household chores, gardening, driving and how to offer to help. It also mentions the Can Do App to organise tasks and helpers. The second video touches on what type of help is useful at what point in time and for who.
