• How can a relapse impact on your mental health?

• What techniques can I use to cope with a relapse?

• I am a family member or friend of someone with leukaemia, how I can support them through relapse? How can I support myself?

• Can I be prepared for potentially relapsing in the future?

• What support should I receive at relapse?

• Can charities help?
