Hi All.
I am new to ALL of this, but really need some help, advice or guidance... My partner and I have recently rekindled an old flame from many years ago, when we were both young and full of dreams! We both went our separate ways, but always stayed in touch. Finally we both actually said how we felt and have been together for the last few months, which we're ecstatic about!
But he has prostate cancer, was diagnosed almost a year ago... He hasn't really done much as way of treatment or...
I have met some really beautiful people, shame I didn't met them before I had cancer.
I don't want to be defined as Karen the one with breast cancer, I want to be Karen.
people have commented that I'm brave, I'm not brave, I had no choice. The op, the adjacent therapy, has been determined because their was no other choice. I have had a couple of dark days they don't see, especially when I faced my mastectomy.
But I'm still a mother, friend and daughter and i want people...

Lets rewind 14 months...its probably IBS said the doctor! I spent 5 weeks going to see the doctor, every week telling him im not well. The last...
Hi, my husband was diagnosed in December with neuroendocrine tumours in pancreas and metastatic in liver and spine , he is receiving chemotherapy for palliative care only ,some days it seems all a bad dream . I know it's terminal but have been given no guide of time left as my husband doesn't want to know
My son is terrified of ‘the man who bangs the table’. When he hears him, he freezes, eyes wide and immediately grabs my hand. When we are out and about, if he hears a banging noise, he immediately reaches for me, and whispers ‘the man, banging the table’. Its his biggest fear. The man who bangs the table is just our neighbour, who doesn’t actually bang the table, just has a chair that squeaks the floor when he moves it. Despite explaining this numerous times to Theo, ‘the man who bangs the table...

My father was diagnosed with prostrate cancer about 18 months ago and had intensive radiotherapy daily for 5 weeks at the time along with hormone treatment. A few months ago he went back to the doctors as he was still losing blood and they suggested laser treatment. He has just had a further treatment and found it excruciatingly painful and has said that he will not have the treatment again as he found it to be painful and intrusive. I'm just wondering what will happen if he does not have another...
I am writing today so that I can vent some frustration from a pretty tough weekend and also to get other people’s point of view on this subject as I'm pretty sure I won't be alone in my feelings or my situation...
To cut a long story short on Saturday I received a very unexpected appointment letter from the hospital to go in on the 26th April for a full body bone scan.... Why do you get an appointment letter with no explanation? I’d had a CT scan last week (for a muscular pain I haven...
Well, I've had the CT and MRI scans. I'm due a colonoscopy tomorrow so hopefully the docs will have all the information they need to see what can be done.
Can't say I'm looking forward to what the doctors will tell me but what will be etc.
I think it's the not knowing that is getting to me. When the full diagnosis is known and, hopefully, a treatment plan is put in place I can move forward.
The internet is a wonderful thing but when you look up information about cancer it can...
Well I did the BM10k run on Sunday. And it sure was a lovely sunny day for it. Perfect in fact. It was the BM10k I did it's before the Brighton Marathon which I did last year, So thought I'd do the easier one this year. Bit late getting there, I made it just by 2 mins before the start of the race, I had to run like hell for a mile. Nice warm up though. Next time always leave a lot ealier even though I was staying with a friend and he did say don't worry loads of time. Not realising the traffic, He...
