Now I've learnt that GenesisCare filed for bankruptcy on 01 June and has had financial problems for at least a year. I was a bit…

I think it’s come back…
Hi, I had a lumpectomy nearly two years ago now, it was ER+ caught early with no spread to lymph nodes. Supposedly straight forward. It took three surgeries and four weeks of radiation therapy. Then started on tamoxifen which drove me crazy so took the gamble and stopped taking it. Anyway I’ve been getting some…

On Our Walks
A while back there was a lovely thread of sunrises that the early risers among us posted. I loved it, so I thought I'd broaden it to a thread for all the lovely sights we see as we do our slow staggers through chemo, or those walks we take after active treatment has finished and we're trying to get our strength and fitness…

'Grief Groceries' to help with a Cancer Diagnosis or the passing of a loved one ....
I put this in the 'Carer's Corner' and it was suggested to put it in the main forum as well. Before I was diagnosed myself, a buddy in Vic was diagnosed with BC - I sent them a cheque for $100, to use at a restaurant of their choice (or anything else of their choice) just to take some pressure off them ... it was hugely…
