Hi and welcome to the Online Community but sorry that you had to find us. I am especially sorry to hear about your cancer diagnosis. Yes it’s hard but you need support from family, friends and the community will help you.
The community is made up of various support groups so do look through the list of Cancer specific groups where you can talk with others who have walked or are walking this cancer journey. Once you find the best group(s) you then need to join a group so just choose 'click to join' or 'join' (depending on the device you're using) on the page that opens.
You can then introduce yourself by putting up a ‘New Thread’ or hit the box with the X on the top right (phones), you could just copy and paste the text from this your first post. You can also join in with existing ‘Discussions’ by clicking on 'reply'.
It’s always good to talk so do call the Macmillan Support Services on 0808 808 00 00 - most services are open 8am to 8pm, 7 days a week Clicking here to see what is available. This service provides lots of cancer information, support, financial guidance or just a listening ear.
We also have Cancer Nurse Team in our Ask an Expert section, but do allow two working days for replies from our expert team.
To find information covering diagnosis, treatments and pages covering most types of cancers check our Online Information and Support Section.
All the very best ((hugs))
