    Hi and thanks for getting back. I am soory to hear that but please remember that ther are peolpe out there with the skill to help you cope with what u are going through. How long has it been since  she was told she had cancer. I am now 4 years down the line and have 1 more year to go for the all clear. What is you first name and the name of your partner.

    Do you attend a support group at all. If not i would be so bold as to saythat i found it a great help and now do a lot of support work with other head and neck cancer patients.

    Hi to you suzywong.

    Thanks for getting in touch. You can check on the macmillan site to see if there is a support group at the local hospital or in your local area.  If not then I would speak to your macmillan nurse to find out if there is one if not then it is worth whlie to try and start one. when i started out there was no support group but i did not take no for an answer and after a year we had a group and it is going well.

    Let me know how you get on and if i can helpin anyoyher way

    Kind regards

    Mick
