The courage to ask for help

When Trevor Yellon’s partner Drew was diagnosed with cancer they fought the illness together. After all, Trevor was a doctor. He was uniquely equipped to deal it. But the strain on Trevor grew more and more intense.

After a series of medical emergencies, Drew collapsed on the stairs and was rushed to hospital. Trevor realised he wasn’t coping. He phoned his stepmother. What he heard from her changed everything.

Trevor tells his powerful story to Life Changing’s Dr Sian Williams.
