You have made a good choice to come on this network!It is always quiet on here on the weekend,but I feel sure that over the next couple of days,people will read your post and respond with ideas.You don't say at what stage of treatment your partner is at,or if she is having surgery,chemo,radiography? I would like to suggest that you call the Cancer council helpline.The number is 131120.Unfortunately it is only business hours,but you can leave a message 24/7 and they will call you back.They offer emotional support if someone you care about has Cancer,plus ALL the other support needed such as treatment questions,practical support available etc.They also have many publications and dvd's available to look at.I hope that this helps a little Steven.Please stay connected on here if we can be of any help to you OR to your partner.Cheers xoxRobyn
