Are you still working while undergoing cancer treatment?

Hello everyone,  

How are you feeling today?

After receiving a serious diagnosis like cancer, one of the big questions that comes up is whether or not to continue working. For some people, physical and emotional fatigue makes it difficult to stay in a job, while for others, continuing to work can be a helpful way to cope with the disease, and they prefer not to take time off. In some rare, but unfortunate cases, cancer patients simply do not have the option.

Have you continued to work during your treatment? What adjustments have you made (part-time, remote work, flexible hours)? How did you navigate conversations with colleagues and your employer?
