Hi there, Is there anyone from Cairns, Queensland that might be able to offer any advice about getting treatment as a young woman in Cairns, or who might like to just talk sometime? Cheers, Janina

Hi Janina,

It feels like its just not fair but...as I said to my two girls, "it's not going to kill me just an inconvenience!"..... I've just got two weeks to go and I'm finished radiotherapy...it's been a long year but I'm going to enjoy some Christmas Cheer!!!

Yes 39 is young, I was 43 in May when diagnosed and just turned 44, so it's like the golf club, we are the young ones....

I hope all the ops have gone well, I went private for the operations and consultations and then to the Liz Plummer centre for the Chemo and now Radiotherapy.  They are brilliant and I must say the crew at ROQ are just amazing.

Let me know if you want to catch up and I'll send you my number, I work at the Airport so always in town.

Cheers

Sally
