Well what is going on on here ? ive just hijacked carolines blog as if honest im so peed off ! im even thinking of leaving , its beyond a joke now,

I came on this site as my husband was dying ,he died in march and i could not have got through without the support ,love and kindness on here , i have 2 very special friends from here that will be my closest friends prob forever , and i wish i could name all the rest of you but id be here till christmas ,you know who you are and i love you all very much ,i now have an amazing new job , im waiting for a phonecall in next few days with maybe fingers crossed some permanant shifts on one ward that wants me, so im very positive atm,

Or i was , till yesterday, this site has turned into a bitchy playground !!! and its pathetic , i dont care anymore if you disagree with me im just stating my opinion, and yes i am friends with some of people invloved ,this is not about them or me , or admin for gods sake,

Can i just remind you why we are here ,its very simple really

CANCER !!!!!

Patients ,,,, carers ,,,, wifes ,,,husbands ,,, sons ,,,,daughters,,,, mums,,, dads ,,,, widows ,,, brothers ,,,sisters ,,friends ,,, i could carry on but i hope its not necessary , cancer affects us all , i myself will always open my arms and my heart and be here for ANYONE affected by cancer , or anyone that needed to talk and needed support as i have done many many times ,

SO PLEASE PLEASE , REMEMBER WHY WE ARE HERE !!!!

LOVE AND HUGS XXXXXX

Jenni,

As Ive said before you have been inspirational to me in the months that ive been on this site, and I totally agree wholeheartedly with your comments. I have not had cancer....I don't know how it feels but I have cared for my mum and without this site it would have been a far more difficult and overwhelming experience. My brother in law also has terminal cancer, so I know that I have to do this all over again at some point and I know that you will all be here when that happens.Dont go anywhere!!! I want to be able to give something back and am trying to support others as they have supported me. Cancer has no repect and we all need to pull together in our fight to deal with it. You have been here for so many people and I for one would have found it a lot harder without you!

I am so glad that your work is being so fulfilling for you, you deserve itxxx

Love and ((((hugs)))) to you xxxSharon

4 years ago I was the carer and I know exactly how you are feeling! I joined the Share Site at the time.

Then 18 months ago i was diagnosed with bowel cancer and have been NED for1 year.

I have stayed around to give the benefit of my experience to carers and patient.

I intend staying around for alot longer as I believe it is important tohelpothers.

What has happened is sad but we are all adults and I am sure we can all rise above it and continue.

Most of us are friends with the person in question on other sites so he will continue to get our support.

Good Luck to everyone and please stick around.

Love Julie X

I'm a newby here. It's a site I once thought I'd never be using, but unfortunately here I am. I guess like all online sites there is a certain minority spoiling it for a larger majority.
