Mumble myou lot mcarry on slurrrrrrp! I'm mbusy!

Siiiiiiigh! I am going to get very cross. I know that inside gadgets there are hamsters that run them. These   have great power for they run a huge network and are in charge of all tech. They remind us of this often, when tech doesn't do what we want and when what we type mysteriously gets transmogified while it floats through the ether before it appears on the digital page.

Tonight they are having a ball, as although they are letting me write this more or less, texts to a pal needed just about every word redoing as I wrote it.

We will see how much patience I have. Fortified by chocolatey strawbs of course

Cheers

I don't no where to start or who to talk I feel a bit lost since my mam got diagnosed with cancer I don't who I can talk to or how to feel thank you for reading 

 Julie2468 I think there is only you and me around so I took a look at your bio. Wow! That certainly must have been a shock. I assume you had no inkling prior to your further blood tests?

I imagine you are feeling robbed of time in your classroom and with your pupils although of course your health has to be front and centre right now.

Cheers 

Hello and welcome. Don't worry, you have come to good place to talk. So sorry to hear your news about your mam

The forum is divided into different types of cancers and bits for parents, carers and loved ones, so you can find people with experiences like yours.

This bit of the forum is for people who find themselves awake at silly o clock and we chat here about all sorts of things. Chat can be light hearted, comforting or informative. Whatever you need.

You are very welcome to stay and chat here.

Would you like to tell us a bit about yourself? Can I ask how old you are? Do you have brothers or sisters that are around or other family members that can help?

When did you get the news? 

Take your time to reply. There might also be a little delay for our answers but we are here.

Hugs

Ho Robin and welcome to the group. Sounds like your at the beginning of all this. Is that right? It's all scary at the beginning before the treatments get going. You're not alone. Do you have someone in the family you can talk to and get support from? It's really important that you have some time when you can relax or do your own thing. I'm sure you are supporting your mum really well. It can be really lonely being a carer and close family member. Come on the group any time you need to. There are some truly fabulous caring people here. It's totally normal to be feeling how you're feeling. Don't bottle up your emotions. Try to find someone you can comfide in and talk to on an ongoing basis.Loads of love Uki.

Am only child am 37 a man of 4 children, the only family I have is my own family for support and partners family aswel, we got the news in may mam is starting treatment in September which feels like it's taken along time I just feel very confused and I just feel like I wanna cry all the time and thank you for making me feel welcome  

Evening Shimmer  

I've been awol for several hours and just caught up with all the fun and games........

....... which started right now as immediately after typing the above it disappeared, so obviously the hamster stopped for a tea break. Hmmph!

Right, let's see if he's back on his treadmill and start again. 

That's wonderful you enjoyed the strawbs and choc mousse Shims, but you're a very messy eater and I had to reach high to remove the splatters. Please call again.

Just got to reply to a dear friend on another, very small group and I'll be back, a la Arnie xxx

Thank you and your right very beginning, mam hasn't even started treatment not till September and i been scared to talk about it
