The rain outside. A warm room. Nowhere else you need to be. 🌧️🤍

This Wednesday evening, join Pinky for 30 minutes to slow down, step away from the noise and simply be.

No pressure to “clear your mind”. No need to be experienced in meditation. Just come as you are.

Sometimes, the kindest thing you can do for yourself is stop for a little while.

Blood cancer symptoms can sometimes be subtle, and they can vary depending on the type of blood cancer.

Some signs to be aware of include:

• Unexplained tiredness or weakness
• Frequent or persistent infections
• Unexplained bruising or bleeding
• Unexplained weight loss
• Night sweats
• Fever without an obvious cause
• Swollen lymph nodes or lumps
• Bone or joint pain
• Breathlessness or looking unusually pale

Having one or more of these symptoms doesn’t necessarily mean you have blood cancer — many can have other, much more common causes.

It’s also important to remember that blood cancer does not always cause symptoms. In many cases, it may be discovered during a routine blood test or investigation for another reason.

But if something feels unusual, persists, or concerns you, speak to your GP. A simple blood test can often be an important first step.

This Blood Cancer Awareness Month, let’s make the signs better known. 🩸🤍

For over 40 years, Dr Samir Agrawal has specialised in the diagnosis and treatment of CLL and other blood cancers.

His career has been dedicated to understanding the disease, supporting patients through complex treatment decisions, and helping people make sense of what can often feel like an overwhelming diagnosis.

At Ichor Health, that depth of medical experience sits alongside our psychological support — because living with CLL is never only about blood results and treatment.

It is about the whole person.

A CLL diagnosis can bring with it a mixture of emotions and feelings. Finding specialist psychological support for CLL is rare. Pinky Jimenez-Agrawal is one of very few practitioners who has studied the emotional impact of CLL in depth, combining this with formal training in occupational and behavioural therapy.

Today is CLL Day 🤍

The hardest part of CLL isn’t always the diagnosis.
Sometimes it’s learning to live with uncertainty. 

Behind Ichor Health is more than 40 years of medical expertise and years of specialist psychological support.

Together, we bring two different perspectives to living with blood cancer.

🩺 Dr Samir Agrawal has spent over four decades caring for people with CLL and other blood cancers.

🧠 Pinky Jimenez-Agrawal specialises in the psychological impact of CLL, having developed and facilitated the SupportACT programme for CLL Support while supporting hundreds of people through one-to-one therapy.

We know that living well with blood cancer is about more than understanding the disease.

It’s about understanding the person.

At Ichor Health, we believe the best care brings together both mind and body—helping people navigate uncertainty with knowledge, compassion and hope.

🩸 September is Blood Cancer Awareness Month.

At Ichor Health, Dr Samir Agrawal and Pinky Jimenez-Agrawal are passionate about supporting people living with blood cancer—both medically and psychologically.

For over 30 years, Dr Samir Agrawal has specialised in the care and treatment of people with CLL and other blood cancers. Alongside him, Pinky Jimenez-Agrawal has had the privilege of supporting hundreds of people through one-to-one therapy and by developing and facilitating the SupportACT programme for CLL Support, specialising in the psychological impact of CLL.

Again and again, we’ve heard the same question:

« How do I keep living when life feels so uncertain? »

Throughout September, we’ll be sharing some of what we’ve learnt—not just about blood cancer, but about navigating uncertainty, reconnecting with what matters, and discovering that it’s possible to live a rich and meaningful life, even when life doesn’t go to plan.

Whether you’re living with blood cancer, supporting someone you love, or facing uncertainty in your own life, we hope you’ll join us this month.

Our thoughts are with everyone affected by the devastating floods in Nepal. 🇳🇵

If you’re in a position to help, please consider supporting this fundraiser.

If donating isn’t possible, sharing it could make all the difference. Together, we can help families begin to rebuild. 💙

Kate Jackson of CHoE:” We at CHoE have been thinking how we can best play a role in this recovery, albeit in a tiny way. As an oustanding childcare centre in Kathmandu, we are offering places for children left orphaned by the flooding. We have delivered vital emergency supplies to a collection point and the Eifion Trust has donated Rotary Club Shelter Boxes in the UK. We need to do more.”

Sometimes, two paths cross the same sky.

For a moment, they come incredibly close.
Same place. Same time.
But moving in opposite directions, towards completely different destinations.

Not everything that comes close to us is meant to stay, follow us, or become part of our journey.

Some paths simply pass near ours.

Let’s learn to recognise what is ours to follow — and what we can let pass.

Which direction are you choosing for yourself?

🌑 Tomorrow evening, something extraordinary is happening above us.

On 12th August, the Moon will pass between the Earth and the Sun, creating a total solar eclipse across parts of the world — and a spectacular partial eclipse here in the UK.

In London, around 91% of the Sun will be obscured, with the eclipse reaching its maximum at approximately 7:13pm.

And just as the eclipse comes to an end, at 8pm, we’ll come together for our summer meditation.

There’s something beautiful about the timing.

Not because an eclipse has some proven power over our wellbeing — but because witnessing something so rare can remind us to stop, look up and become present.

Join Pinky for 25 minutes of free online guided meditation and give yourself a moment to slow down, breathe and reconnect.

🌑 Wednesday 12th August
🕗 8:00pm UK time
💻 Online & free
🤍 Everyone welcome

Watch the sky. Then join us in stillness.

A summer evening we might remember for a while. 🌑✨
