Message notification working :)
Hi All, Was very excited to see that my messages are now showing up a message when I comment on someone else's post and they either reply to my comment or someone else comments on the post.

Hi all,
This my first time here. I was diagnosed on the 9th of June. I am now booked in for Surgery on Monday the 29th for Wide local Excision & Sentinel Node Bx. This is what my surgeon thinks is best.

My first post
Hi, I was diagnosed with advanced breast cancer last Nivember. I am a Principal of a school and that makes my illness high profile.

New website is terrible
Hi ladies I know this is broken record stuff but I have to agree with the team that the new website is terrible. I can't find my way around at all.. It's hard work and it's disjointed. I'm not sure what you are working on with regards to fixing this but if it's just email notifications I think you are way off the mark. The…

Hi to our new members
A quick hi to our new members. I'm sorry it's taking me a few days to admit you to the group. I'm flat out with work, and as I don't get emails anymore advising me of member requests, I'm really only checking this site once a week. I do hope you find information of use, and please do feel free to post your own requests,…

Hi all, we in Tassie seem to be re-targetted by the pseudo charity Breast Cancer Australia after a short respite. They are asking for donations in multiples of $60 (which they say assists them in giving accommodation to people from areas outside Melbourne) but they are not a registered charity, and do not have any…

Anyone else having trouble with adding members and groups?
Is anyone else having problems being added to groups? I have tried joining the Young Women's group since joining the forum over 30 days ago and had no luck despite multiple attempts. Is this a problem in general for any other users or is it with specific groups?
