Whilst my hubbie had his chemo I sat in the warmth and comfort of Maggie's center based at the hospital. I was so well looked after. Whilst hubbie was having his last chemo session I bought some raffle tickets to support the wonderful service they offer, not only for the person with cancer but their loved ones as well. Today hubbie had a phone call to say that he had won a men's hamper in the draw. How lovely is that. Can't wait to go and pick it up. If you have a centre like this near you go and check them out. They really are amazing.
Hello Shar To quote my old mum - bless her
"If she fell out of the Co-Op she would land in the dividend".
Maggie's centres are amazing and are a support centre (a charity too) for anyone affected by cancer. They are located around the country and all offer a number of services - meetings, counselling, support, courses and even just a cup of tea and a listening ear.

Hello Les s
That's not good at all, something I wasn't aware of and I am based in Oldham so it's not local to me. I just did a search of the "in your area" for Lincolnshire on our web pages and here's the link to what help I have found:
If there's nothing there for you it's possible our support line on 0808 808 00 00 may have some further information about local groups.
I hope this helps.
Best wishes - Brian.
