  • Hi  and a warm welcome to the Online Community, a Community that no one really looks to see themselves joining, and so sorry to hear about your dad’s suspected cancer diagnosis.

    A cancer diagnosis can bring a lot of confusion, stress and many questions but talking with other people who are on the same type of journey can help a lot.

    The Community is organised into support groups so you may want to start by joining our supportive Pancreatic cancer group as you will connect with others walking the treatment journey both as patient or family.

    Follow the above link then choose ‘click to join' or ‘join’ when the page opens. You can then introduce yourself, post questions or just  join in with existing discussions by clicking on 'reply'. 

    You may also find our Family and friends group a great benefit as you will connect with others supporting family through their cancer journesy.

    It’s always good to talk and the Macmillan Support Services provides lots of information, support or just a listing ear.

    Most services are open 8am to 8pm, 7 days a week and it's free to call on 0808 808 00 00 have a look by Clicking here to see what is available and we also have our Ask an Expert section, but do allow two working days for replies from our expert team.

    Our Online Information and Support Section  is a good place to find information covering diagnosis, treatments and pages covering most types of cancers.

    All the very best.
