  • Hi and a warm welcome to the Online Community but sorry you see the need to join us. I am also so sorry to hear about your diagnosis.

    A cancer diagnosis indeed brings confusion, stress and many questions but I found talking with other people who are on the same type of journey helped a lot.

    HelloTray66 ...sorry about your diagnosis.... hope all goes well for you it’s a shock I know.... just like the welcoming MrsBH says

    I also know there is a lot of helpful information on this site ....cup of coffee me and my IPAd digging for info on McMillan  ThinkingEvery morning

    I was diagnosed with secondary liver cancer no treatment possible I’m told....so fatal 

    so I decided not to tell some people I know, who I was aware would be a “nuisance” didn’t want the question or remark....

    ”you look better today” or “ how you feeling”  I’ve stopped that ....

    make it for you too...tell them.... I’m still me ... but mainly people are frightened of cancer and don’t know what to say 

    so we’ve got to guide them .....P.S make them laugh it works! Paper knickers may happen for you ....I had wear to them for a while

    so singing “Paper Roses” and changing the last word to knickers caused a nurse to go into hysterics 

    It’s like medicine ....seek comedy on tv ...movies...audio ...

    very best wishes
