A warm welcome to the Macmillan Online Community, although I am very sorry to read of your daughter's situation. I'm Derek, one of the Community Champions here on the Community which is divided into cancer specific groups and I'd like to suggest you join the Breast Cancer forum where you can connect with others facing similar problems.
