Hello everyone
This is a thread for all members of the Online Community to come together and chat. Please do say hello!
Why not check in and let everyone know how you're doing today?
Well - it's the middle of the week, it's September and in Lancashire summer is over, it's windy, dark and as usual it's raining. HOWEVER that's not going to spoil my mid week constitutional with the dog for a couple of pints later this evening.
Yes I have cancer but it's not going to rule my life.
Lec's summed it up for me in the first post - "keep smiling and stay happy no matter what life throws at us" spot on that pal - that's the attitude.
Best wishes to all - Brian.

Hi just wanted to reassure you after your comment. My family also told me to rest but I felt the same as you. When you rest too much you can’t help but think about what’s going on so can be detrimental. Just do you! Don’t overdo things but rest when you feel like it. Don’t lose yourself and remember they feel helpless so it’s the only thing they can do. I had breast cancer but at moment am clear. Still worry everyday but no choice but to get on! Sending good wishes and luck so take care Carole
Thanks Carole, exactly that! I don't want to overthink it, just taking the days as they come. oh, the old song comes to mind: que Sara Sara whatever will be... Caterina Valente if my memory serves. have a good day
