Hi Dale,
This is Annie from BCNA's Policy Team. I'm sorry to hear you have experienced radiotherapy burns - no wonder you're grumpy.
I'm writing to let you know that BCNA recently surveyed members of our Review & Survey Group to ask them about their personal experiences with radiotherapy burns, and what skin care tips they would offer to other women, to help prevent or manage burns. We wrote an article in a recent edition of The Beacon about our findings, and the article contains some skin care tips that women recommended to us. The article is located on page 11 of this Beacon edition - http://www.bcna.org.au/sites/default/files/thebeacon55_0.pdf
Also, if you are interested in reading other past editions of The Beacon, they are located here - http://www.bcna.org.au/news/beacon-magazine/beacon-archive.
I hope that information is helpful Dale.
Annie
