Hi everyone, just finding my way around.
Diagnosed with stage 4 bowel cancer. Found out I had a tumour on 19th Sept. Initially thought to be stage 3 but that changed after surgery.
Hi Blondiebird and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
I’m Anne, one of the Community Champions here on the Online Community, and I hope I can help you find your way around.
The online community is divided into different support groups so I'm going to recommend that you join the bowel cancer group, which is a great place to ask questions, share experiences and get support.
To join, just click on the link 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 further help just drop me a reply and I'll be pleased to help.
