Body and Soul

Hi Helen

Great to know that my fantastic left breast :) has had an effect out there and truly helping my sisters.  One thing though I am not an advoate fof BCNA I think they are a great organisation and did do the training but my advoacacy and work addressing the Financail Impact of Cancer on Cancer patients made any involvement after the training virtually impossible.  I always promote BCNA when I can or if people are asking me about cancer support organisations but my main focus just had to be on addressing the financial impact of cancer.  Not sure if you struggled under the weight of bills and no money whlist you were going through treatment but if yo did you would know there is bugger all out there to provide assistance in this area for cancer patients and without the dollars required to cover treatment, scans, medications and all the other bills that come in the trip goes from being a nightmore to a real life horror story and it breaks my heart that too many people end up losing marriages, homes and businesses due to it or end up deciding to refuse treatment.  So whilst there is a cancer pateint struggling in that area I will be doing what I can to change it .  The charity is presnetly called Stars with Heart but will soon be known as Big C Support the best way to find out what is happening with it will be either via the website or to drop me an email at my personal email address: firstgypsyrose@yahoo.com.au but please do let any cancer patients you know who may be struggling in this area aware of us and always free to hand out my details.  Hope all is going well with you.
