Many thanks for the advice from all you souls in Oz. I live in France and I worked in Australia for over 30 years. My daughter who lives in Melbourne put me in contact with bcna. The system here is different but FREE. I don't have a breast cancer care nurse but just out of surgery after a double mastectomy I have a district nurse to visit daily and change dresssings etc. And a good GP.
Also some hours of home help for a couple of weeks as I live on my own.
Your advice and help has been invaluable throughout 6 months of chemo and now the ROAD to RECOVERY. Radiation yet to come . Keep on keeping on and again thanks for clear and honest advice which is hard to find here even if I do speak quite good French. judys
