Hi, I was diagnosed with breast cancer in Feb after visiting my GP with a lump that turned out to be a benign cyst. The " surprise" one was hiding and picked up on a precautionary mammogram. I consider myself very lucky! My husband and I live abroad so we're trying to do all this in a foreign language. My care so far, though, has been fantastic.

A 4 week relfection.

I am looking after my dad he got diagnosed in nov 09 with bowel cancer, they removed the tumor but there were still cancer cells.....so he started chemo, then got told in march that the cancer had spread to his liver........he is kinda doing ok, had a blood transfusion yesterday because he is now anaemic, this made him feel better.
I am worried that i should be doing more or i am not asking the right questions or being assertive enough. My dad is divorced, so i have been going with him to appointments...

CAB adviser helped with DLA form and I'm not thick by any means but was very happy she filled it in as I would'nt have ticked half of the boxes(didn't think they applied to me) but after she explained I could see what she meant, so now just have to wait and see.
McMillan pain nurse came on Thursday and she's changed my Zomorph for Oxycontin and Sevredol for Oxynorm. Not taking them yet as not...
