I honsetly thought macmillan cancer support meant just that !!!

Jenny I am with you all the way, I do not like taking sides but nobody should feel excluded  if they have had to deal with cancer past or present, So many of the people we

know will help  are those who have already lost loved ones. They help us see however hard life goes on and for many that's the hardest  thing of all.I  really do hope this site can continue as it has welcoming  everyone who needs it.

love sandra

Hi Jen, Wow what excellent news about your work, i really hope it works out for you, i am loving it, a few tough moments over the last couple of days in terms of a man i have been nursing with cancer passing away with only me by his side, that bought back so many awful memories but his family were so lovely to me and grateful that i just held his hand and talked to him.

Anyway hun, i have no idea what has been going on on here, i popped into chat last night for the first time in ages and everyone was talking about certain people lying etc, to be honest i came out of chat as i really didn't want to talk about stuff like that.

But i just want to say Jen, that i will never ever forget the reason i joined this site and i do not feel any less part of this family because my dad has now gone, like Caroline has said in her blog i need you guys now more that ever, we all need eachother, that is why most of us join.

Lots of love to you Jen, please don't leave this site you are truly an inspiration to me and many others on here. xxxx

I so agree with the previous blogs.

Speaking personally, I have had different  different needs at the different stages of G's cancer.  (Yes, if you hadn't guessed I am a caring wife whose husband of 43 years has a terminal cancer)  

After the first shock of his diagnosis, I was so encouraged by all the positive comments about patients who had survived longer than predicted for his type of cancer.

In my turn, as G responded well to treatment, I was happy to post enouraging and sometimes even funny blogs to help those following our path.

Now, as G seems to be deteriorating, and I am foced to contemplate what lies ahead, I gain strength and reassurance that somehow we carers do get through.  I am in awe of the bravery of so many who have lost loved ones, and pray I will be able to follow their examples when the tme comes.

Love and hugs to all

Daffie xxx,

Congratulations on the great news about your job Jen!! Well done you.  Okay, a kick up the backside to you - you are NOT leaving this site, you are so needed here and care so much.  I know this has all got way out of hand and can understand your feelings, but, like you said this site is for everyone and how true that is.  It is an invaluable place for anyone affected by cancer in anyway, and is made the place it is by the community of wonderful people; friendships that can become so strong and lifelong - what a gift is that.  

Take care Jen

Lots of love

love you jenni you have been amazing even after everything you have been through.
