Hi, I’m sorry you’ve found yourself here . I don’t blame you for being angry , especially having had skin cancer too
I get bloody furious about it all at times too , how dare this disease come into our lives and cause all that it does
Wishing you all the best for your surgery

Ty for txt ...it made me smile ..the last few weeks i haven't had a lot to smile at ..I hope your keeping well
Hi, I am the same as you, but the other way round! Breast cancer in 2012 - lumpectomy, mastectomy and rads, melanoma in 2019 and basal cell carcinoma last year. I think we have every right to feel angry with our bodies, but at the same time make sure it does not take over our lives. Good luck with your surgery x
We have to KICK ITS A….! I wholeheartedly agree that C has no right to blight our lives like this. I laughed when GP receptionist said “we have no appointments till just after Christmas. Is it urgent?” I said “I’ve just found a small lump in LB”! She said “Come in this afternoon”! And yet, I was already Stage 3 w/o realising. I’m glad for you MrsCrochet that your a small stage 2 xxx
Hiya I've only just learnt the stages ..I do hope u are sorted soon ..I had 2 week wait for hosp appt...and mammograms and biospy the same day with operation date set ..hope your appt was quick x
You’ll want a season ticket (or v good friend) for the hospital car park! It’s lots of appointments BUT God Bless the NHS..Without them I dread to think where we would be xx
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
