When Nails Meet Chemo: A Tale of Unexpected Side Effects

from The Funny Things About Cancer · host Kerri

In this episode of "The Funny Things About Cancer," I delve into the unexpected side effects of chemotherapy on nails, a topic that isn’t discussed as much as other side effects, but one that is significantly impactful on daily life. Amidst the candid reflection on personal experiences with nail discoloration and loss, I share a lighthearted exploration of workplace camaraderie: colleagues sharing their perspectives on perfume, and the fashion statements made through scrubs. Join me as I uncover the humor and irony in these side effects, and share gratitude for the small joys, like colorful scrubs, that brighten the cancer treatment journey.
