Hi all
Thought I would introduce myself, my mother inlaw has been diagnosed with return of breast cancer and bone cancer 4 weeks ago 2 weeks after her diagnosis my father in law became Ill and was diagnosed with a brain tumour. We get the results of the tumour tomorrow.
It's been a very hard emotional few weeks.
They are both the best couple and blessed to have them in my life think the world of them
It's been very hard seeing them so ill and seeing how the family are.
Well that's the short story
Thank you for allowing me to join xxx
I'd like to welcome you to the online community and to the family and friends group we are always very sorry to see new people join as it usually means that they or a friend or relative has been diagnosed with this awful disease but in your case you have been dealt two bad hands in short succession.
We are a very friendly group and you can come on here at any time you need a chat or even to have a rant and rave or just to let off steam we will be here to give all the help and support we can.
We have various groups covering specific types of cancer that might be of interest to you, we have an active Breast cancer forum group, a Bone cancer forum group and a Brain cancer forum group all of which you are very welcome to join and ask the members questions they are all very willing to share their experiences with you.
We have many groups that we call ask an expert that you are free to ask questions and one in particular might be initially be of interest it's our Ask a Nurse page where you can ask one of the specialist nurses any questions you may have.
