Good morning ladies and gentlemen and welcome to the frst running of the Oncology Cup, the race that stops the drip lines. There's a huge crowd in despite the weather and we have reports of a late plunge on Blood Test, one of the facied overseas runners in the big cup later today. We'll be interviewing the owner of the great Ultrasound and chatting with Picc Line's jockey. And after the race we'll have a full round up of the day's events and a profile of the rising champion Side Effects, who'll certainly be featuring in next year's carnival if our tip is on the money.

Hi - I am new here. I am worried about my Father-in-law (mid 60's) who is caring for my Mother-in-law who has 2 types of cancers. In the past month she has deterioated like you wouldn't believe. He won't get any help in to do domestic duties and insists on caring for her. (they have a large house to manage) I worry that his method of coping will consume him. She's not so mobile at the moment either. He's old school and I have suggested that there are resources out there but he says he's 'fine for the moment'.

I was given some words yesterday and would like to share. CANCER IS SO LIMITED It cannot shatter hope, It cannot corrode faith, It cannot destroy peace, It cannot kill friendship, It cannot suppress memories, It cannot silence courage, It cannot invade the soul, It cannot steal eternal life, It cannot conquer the spirit.

The word has been thrown around like wildfire. Its Cancer. You have Cancer. The Cancer may spread. Sorry did I forget to mention, You Have Cancer? But hold on. I don't recognise this word. This word is not me. If I could describe myself in a word, it would be... happy. Or maybe that was my word and now I have a new one. I didn't pick this word but then again maybe it wasn't my choice.
