You have found your way to Breast Cancer Network Australia's (BCNA's) Online Network. This is a forum where you are not alone and can engage with generous members who provide meaningful support to each other. You can share as much or as little as you feel comfortable with other members. Please explore our various Groups for members who are looking for greater peer-to-peer support.
The following links may also be helpful in getting you started:

I am saddened to see so many new members.
Whilst our cancers may be slightly different they are all cancers and we can all help each other.
Always remember that there is a great group of ladies and men here who can support you, often from afar.
No question is too small or too silly so at any time just ask ask ask.
You will no doubt also find that it is easier to vent on here to someone not closely connected with you and there are members of a range of ages and circumstances so you will connect with someone.
We are all thinking of you all as you begin whatever your diagnosis and whatever your treatment. 💖💖
