Not completely ready to dive right in but appreciate the support I have seen in this group for a little while so taking tentative steps to posting for now, I have stage 4 incurable cancer, treatable but learning slowly what that means x
Morning GreenH, your very welcome, and that's what we are all here for, to help each other, and great to hear you had a lovely day yesterday with your pals, I had a day at the coast with my middle daughter ant of my youngest daughters girls, which was wonderful, but need to rest today lol, that dark cloud is never far away but you do learn to live with it, for the most part. I hope you have something nice to do today too.

I am so glad u glimpsed a little of light out of the dark place we all visit from time to time.
I had a dark blip yesterday and find it difficult to get motivated today
I've made a small list of jobs to do..and if I do wake up tomorrow down in the dumps I know I can snuggle into my blanket and brood or sleep knowing I have vacuumed and mopped today
Take one day at a time my friend...the support here is amazing
Hugs and love and sunshine in ur day
Hi GreenH
I was given the incurable diagnosis last year. I was certainly in a very dark place.However, joining this forum and friends here really helped me. I came to accept my diagnosis and learned to live the best I can along side cancer. It took sometime, but I would say cancer won’t dominate you. It is just like dark clouds/ storm. It will come and go but the blue sky is always here.
Talk to you soon.

That’s a brilliant way of looking at things Stella2020 ️
I dreamt I was back in my “old life” last night and woke up feeling very down but re-focused my thoughts and can see some blue sky again . Enjoy your spa today

Sorry I am late welcoming you to the group GreenH I’ve been off the site for a couple of days, and just popped back on today.
Well what can I say about this amazing group of people you have joined. Just reading through the comments tonight has reminded me how special a place this is. You won’t find anywhere else where a group of strangers come together to support each other in this way. We are all living with this incurable disease, yet you all take the time to reach out to someone. You are all fabulous!!
GreenH it is daunting living with this disease, and you will have days when you feel overwhelmed, just take each day, one step at a time. My cancer is also endometrial but is now in my lungs, the bugger got greedy. You can read my story if you click on my name, it will take you to my profile page.
look forward to chatting again.
Hi Chelle thank you for your kind message and sorry for not replying sooner I've been away for a few days.
As you say, living with this disease certainly is daunting and trying hard to make the most of the good days before the next round of treatment.
I've read your profile, you certainly have been through some challenges, hope you are doing okay for now
Lots of love x
