Hi, a friend has a suspected diagnosis of Ovarian cancer. We won’t know definitely for another week but I know absolutely nothing about it other than I am a breast cancer survivor.
I hope I am in a good position to be of support if needed. I want to be prepared for the worst but any advice please on how to initially help her would be appreciated.

So sorry to hear that. She’s lucky to have you as a friend, the best thing you can do is be there for her, and let her talk - let her know no thing is off limits. She’ll be feeling very fearful - hopefully she’ll get good news, but if not then having a treatment plan will help. As above the forums are good, but keep her off Dr Google! Your experience with cancer makes you a great support.

Wishing you and her all the best x
