I am so Worried waiting on a phone call for a scan. It’s on my tongue and they think it could be stage 1 but unsure until after the scan. Keep crying for my hubby and only daughter she is 23 years old - we are all completely devastated.

  • Hi and a very warm welcome to the online community

    Having a cancer diagnosis is a tremendous shock and, as you've found, it affects the whole family.

    As the online community is divided up into different support groups I'm going to recommend that you join the head and neck cancer group which is a great place to ask your questions, share experiences and get support.

    To join just click on the link I've created and then choose 'click to join' or 'join' (depending on the device you're using) on the page that opens. You can then introduce yourself and post in the same way as you did here and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'. 

    It would be great if you could pop something about your diagnosis and treatment so far into your profile as it really helps others when answering or looking for someone with a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.

    If you have any difficulty navigating the community just drop me a reply and I'll be pleased to help.
