Hi DeeJaycd,
Well done for being half way through.
This forum is an absolute treasure for finding support, information and the ability to moan and rant if you wish.
we are all the same on here - all at different stages of treatment but love to support everybody else.
There’s always someone who’s done it, doing it - so has the answer.

Hello
They say its good to talk and message so here if you need a chat. I joined the forum a few months ago when I was diagnosed. Had my op and now scheduled to start Chemo on April 11th.
It is lonely, as I find you have to be so strong with family and friends. But this forum is great, open and honest. So if you have any questions ask away I am sure these lovelies will give you the support and advise you need.
Take care
Hi Dee Joyce I’m very nervous about using the forum too . I find it lonely as well having Breast Cancer but over time when your treatment ends and life gets back to a more normal way . You will feel better . The ladies here are amazing and always know how you feel . Please stay in touch we are here for you . And you are not alone . Lots of love Belinda xxx
Hi Deejayce
Getting half way through chemo is a big thing. Well done. It is certainly a lonely time but I really like this forum. It helps to know that I'm not alone and unfortunately others have been through the same as me. I had 6 rounds of Chemo and finished on Jan 25th. You're half way there. That's a big thing but I am sorry you are in this club too. Sending you strength
Hi DeeJayce
I feel the same - I'm starting chemo in a few weeks after diagnosis and surgery and feeling I have no time to adjust to anything - it's all been very rapid treatment wise.
I am a lone parent so have relied on friends to help with the children since surgery but it's been hard having with no one in the house to talk about things for me/ or stupid things that may make be feel better. I seem to always be putting on my brave face. I think you've done extremely well to get as far as you have on your own. I'm new here today - this is my first reply.
I hear you and I understand how lonely this can feel, Please reach out for all the help you can - here - of wherever you feel most comfortable. You are already doing this on your own, well done you - but remember this is a place where you can unload - that is why I've signed up today to try and work through my own worries.
Take care of yourself x
