Hi PETRO 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'm sorry to read that you have been diagnosed with cancer but not yet started treatment.
The online community is divided into different support groups but as you haven't said what type of cancer you were diagnosed with I can't give you a link to a group. You could either let me know or take a look through this list.
Once you've joined the right group, you can start a new post in the same way as you did here and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
