Not benifical for the site

So true Tonya,' never say never'

Robyn,you are so right.We are here in a peer support role and not a professional one.It is not ethical for any of us to give medical or mental health advice to others at this network.We can only share our own experience of bc and how we feel.This may be quite different to another person's experience.As for statistics,my bc has never conformed to them.Stats are best left to the specialists and even they can't always predict.I think it's good to question our treatments but this doesn't mean we won't follow through.Having discussions at this network can help us ask the necessary questions at our specialist appointments.After that,we can then make informed/confident decisions for ourselves. I've been a registered nurse for almost 40 years and have a lot of medical and counselling experience.But when I log onto this network,I'm a bc survivor,a pink sister offering friendship and support.Tonya xx

Sorry to hear that you are leaving, I wish you health & happiness. You do need positive people around you. This site should be the place to come to for support, I'm so sorry that you didn't receive it from all quarters. As Tonya said, we'll be here for you if you want to drop in, take care,

Dear Sarah, wishing you peace.  I am  sorry that when we first met on this board a year ago, I was not able to give you the friendship and support you sought from me when  I posted to express my sympathy  for your situation, and you private-messaged me offering  to drive hundreds of kilometers to take me to my chemo sessions each 3 weeks, and to chat any time day or night.

 But while you needed a reciprocal support person, I was not able to be that person. My  daughter  was already coming with me to appointments and I needed to be with her. And I was sick and did not have the time and energy to give you support too.

I have never intended to hurt you.  I do wish you well, and hope one day you will find it in your heart to forgive me for not  having the time and energy to be your special friend through this difficult time. I am sorry you are now so angry at me that you are leaving the BCNA group. I think that is a terrible shame, esp given what you are now going through. Can we not both participate here together in peace? People don't have to agree with each other, but we all have a place here. .
best wishes

Hey Sarah

Please know that you can always do a John Farnham on us and come back because we miss you. Any time you will be welcomed back with open arms.  The comments above confirm that.

I am so sorry that you feel you have to leave us as I know the majority are here for you every step of the way.

I know personally that I have received so much luv and support from this site. But should I need to I would just disregard any negativeness as this is not what this site it about.

Luv n light 2 u and yours
