Can pregnant women be around chemo patients?
Yes, they are perfectly safe to be around pregnant women, 'Cancers' are not contageous in the sense that just being around someone can cause you to get it.. however if they have recently been treated with chemo (a few hours, days ago) you may want to keep a little distance as some chemicals used in hospitals are not safe for pregnant women- but in general, you should be perfectly fine if you are pregnant around someone undergoing chemo. As long as the person isn't sick with a contageous illness on top of whatever they've been diagnosed with- like strep throat, flu, bronchitus etc.

Can You mentally support a Chemo therapy patient without affecting yourself?
Everything an individual does affects them; good or bad. To support a Chemo patient means to be there through the good and bad times they may have. Chemo (depending on how much Chemo they will be getting and the length of time) can leave the person feeling sick to their stomach; weak; sometimes depressed and in some cases the loss of hair; perhaps eyebrows and eyelashes can cause further depression. If you feel you can be there 100% for them then you should be. Many Chemo patients are amazing and take their treatments with few complaints.
