Hi everyone
Just wanted to say hello as a new member of the group.
Hi Crazyhorse and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
The online community is divided up into different support groups where you can ask questions, share experiences and get support.
As you haven't said what type of cancer you have, you could either let me know and I can give you a direct link to that group, or you can look through this list and choose the appropriate one for you.
Alternatively, if it's someone you know who has cancer just let me know and I'll link you to the appropriate support group.

Hi Latchbrook
Thank you for your message. I lost my wife to cancer just over 2 years ago and now my stepdaughter has been diagnosed with terminal cancer.
I look forward to hearing from you.
I'm really sorry to read that Crazyhorse . I can't imagine what a difficult time this must be for you.
You may like to join the bereaved spouses and partners group and also the supporting someone with incurable cancer group. Both are supportive places where you can discuss your worries and share your emotions.
To join either or both of these groups, just click on the links I've created and, once you've joined, you can start a new post in the same way as you did here and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.
If you need any help navigating the community just drop me a reply and I'll be pleased to help.
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
