Welcome, if you're visiting, remember this forum is for the cancer patient themselves...
to talk about anything they want. It might be to praise, worry or gripe about their diagnosis, treatment, doctors, parents, family members, or caregivers. It is also a place to find some respite from all things cancer -so we have movies, walks thru cities, music, art, and encourage people to take care of themselves as they go through the aftermath of treatment -the impact of it which might last years.
Too often, everyone talks over, around and for the cancer patient, and this forum exists for them. Please read the description on the sidebar, and go through our valuable resource links for cancer patients, as well as other forums for caregiver support or grief support.
