Hi Gil C and welcome to the Online Community and especially from across the big pond.

Everyone who joins the community are looking for different things like support during diagnosis, treatment and post treatment. Some join just to chat with others.
The community is actually divided into dedicated Support Groups (Discussion Rooms) and if you care ti look through THIS LIST you will find all our many dedicated cancer support groups listed and this second list is for our various other General Cancer experience groups.
These groups are safe places to talk to others with a similar diagnosis, treatment experience, to ask questions and get support.
When you are ready to connect in with a group click on the [Bold Links] I have created above, then once you find the group for your cancer type click on the black banner that says [click to join] at the bottom, or the [Join] button under "Group tools."
You can then put up your own post when you’re ready by clicking “+new” or “+” in the top right next to the group title. You can copy and paste the text from this post into your new post. You can also scroll through other members posts and click “Reply” to get involved.
Do get back to me if you need further help navigating the community.
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
