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

Well said Jenni. We have more important things to worry about. The first time I started reading the forums on the site a few days after my husband was diagnosed with a brain tumour I read similar things about someone who had upset someone else and it put me off using the site for a while as I wanted to talk to people who understood that our lived were turned upside down and i'm not interested in squabbling. I work in a school I can get that any day!

Thankfully I have found some lovely people who have really helped me cope with how I was/am feeling. Including you Jenni.

Hope it all settles down and everyone focuses on the reason they first felt the needed to come onto the site.

Lots of love to everyone.

I'm very new here, despite having already had diagnosis, treatment and return to work over the past 18 months! I'm actually finding the site remarkably difficult to navigate, despite (or maybe because of) being a member of many other forum and blog sites.

Anyway, I digress. (I do that - if I stick around and post more, you'll notice!) In my short time here I've found stories of great significance to me and, sadly, some folk who'd really be better off not posting, as they seem unable to be "nice". Plus, my second day here I had some very nice spam for tea! (in my inbox! )

I hope to find many more positive blogs and posts here, and that everyone who posts here remembers why we're all here - to help us deal with what ails us, whether it be as patient, carer or 'other'!
