‘I’m trying to keep from dying’: undergoing chemotherapy amid coronavirus

By Heather Chaney, as told to Hallie Golden

I want to keep my family safe from a deadly virus. But to survive cancer I have to go a hospital daily

I have been dreading my first chemotherapy appointment.

I started radiation treatment a couple of days ago, and the 15-minute sessions (in which I lie on my back as a big machine rotates around me) didn’t bother me much. But the idea of having to sit passively as toxic drugs are slowly funneled into my body has kept me up at night.
