Living with a digestive cancer can deeply affect your daily life. Taking just 5–10 minutes to pause, whether through breathing, meditation, prayer, or quiet reflection, can help your body and mind reset.  🧠

The key takeaways were:
🔸 Taking into account patient perspectives in clinical trials
🔸 Facilitate clear communication, empowerment, and support
🔸 Ensure a better collaboration among patients, clinicians, and researchers
🔸 Adopt a Patient-centred approach
