Chickchat fortnightly coffee morning

Thanks Primek, Sheran here (the skinny grey haired one in the pic) lol.
I think our group is pretty good. Basically we get together for a cuppa and a catch up with each other about our daily lives and 'normal stuff' - kids, jobs, hobbies etc.
Also we are there to answer any questions newbies might have and recommend which doctor, nurse, cancer group might be helpful. We never recommend any meds as we are not medically trained, but we do give our insight into a medication if we hav had it tho.
Have a great day

@bevvzy. I was wondering if this group would be helpful and supportive.

We go out every 3mths do something just friendly stuff .... had a christmas function in december going to the chocolate factory at katoomba this month, then doing Christmas in July and going out to Cowra in September for cherry blossom festival we see that we are more than just needing information we need the time to chat etc... why we do the lunch afterwards.  then some ladies sometimes go off to see a movie after lunch.... 
We have the encore program here that is good and they have a lunch once per month also. 

Hello Soldier Crab your group sounds like our McGrath foundation group, we don't do many outings tho it's more about exercise & cancer information.
Thats why we started our own group.

here is the link to some support groups... https://www.bcna.org.au/services-and-support-groups/ 

Hi @Sheran, Just wanted to let you know, Bathurst has a support group that runs monthly Bathurst Bosom Buddies. 
I put out the newsletter. This month we are off on an outing to Katoomba, but normally we meet the 2nd Tuesday of the Month at Bathurst RSL from 10am until 12pm Some of the ladies stay for lunch at the RSL... 

I live in Concord, near Strathfield. Happy to meet with those interested.  :):)

Hello Hulos unfortunately I am not able to meet up, I was asking where you live as I used to live in Sydney's  western suburbs 25 years ago.

Hello Glemmis as you know when dealing with cancer sometimes family and friends aren't enough as they don't really understand how you feel; getting angry for no reason or crying at something that you would normally laugh at, or all the little side effects you get to the chemo or meds you have to take.
That is why we set up our own group - not necessarily breast cancer ladies either, we hav a couple of ladies that had non-Hodgkin lymphoma too - as cancer in its many forms is still cancer; we also react to the diagnosis in very similar ways too.

Hi Glemmis,  great to start the ball rolling and see who can join in..:):)
