I am So sorry to hear you've jumped on the BC Bandwagon @tisme - We all feel super alone when we get the news, downright scared & the whole roller coaster emotions kick in, which is entirely normal - some people may let you down, but others will step up to the plate to help you thru these initial stages xx ....

Welcome to the forum (altho no-one is here by choice!)
Any question that you may have - whack them up here & you'll get a pretty honest answer!

Where abouts are you (City/town) - we may have members who can fill you in on local resources and backup.

Ain't none of us here by choice - but we ARE here to help you get thru this!! xx
Take care, and keep us in the loop ..... we are here to help you work thru this xx
