Hi. The living in France part is all good. Been here 30 years and am happy with the health service here.
But my husband died three years ago and last year I moved from a small town to a small city for more opportunity to get out and about. But last week I was diagnosed with tongue and lymph gland cancer . After I picked myself up I realised I need someone to talk to but prefer to keep the whole thing completely private so I found this site in the hopes that I can ask questions and learn a bit more about what is happening.
Looking forward to sharing.
Hi Pauface Welcome to the forums although I'm sorry you have found yourself here. The forum is split into different cancer types/experiences to make it easier to connect with people going through the same as you. I have put a link below for the tongue cancer forum for you.
