Re: Newly Diagnosed

Hi @Skips, 

 

I'm very sorry to hear about your diagnosis. Its great you have reached out to the forum as there is a wealth of support and wisdom in this group. Getting a new diagnosis is an incredibly challenging time. If you feel it would be supportive please know that you can call Cancer Council on 13 11 20 and speak to a health professional on our information and support line. They are able to provide general information, emotional support and possible referrals to our services. 

 

Take care, 

Felicity
