What if I cannot get to the appointments?

Tell your team before you miss one, rather than after. Travel and parking are often reimbursed, some visits can be moved, and some tests can sometimes be done closer to home.

People often drop out silently because the bus fare stopped being possible. That is a solvable problem, and your team would much rather solve it than lose you.
