    I am 33 and was recently diagnosed with Breast Cancer. I am looking for a support group for young women in the South Eastern Suburbs and if one does not exists I am hoping to create one. I'm hoping to meet during the day to allow our kids to play and allow us mum's to share similar issues. I'm hoping this website can help me connect with other young women in the South Eastern Suburbs
