  • Hi  and welcome to the Online Community, although I am sorry to see you finding us and so sorry to hear that you are looking at the rollercoaster again.

    It’s early days but can I direct you to this link to our very supportive Bone, secondary cancer group as this will open up your concerns to a wider audience who know exactly what you are going through at the moment.

    Just follow the link I have created then hit the ‘Join This Group’ tab just under the main group name, then go to the 'Start a Discussion' tab and set up your very own Discussion and introduce yourself to the group and ask your questions.

    ((hugs))
