I know how you are feeling. The middle of the night is the worst. It seems all the drs want to do is talk numbers. I am feeling much better just from 'chatting' with you' and that is what we have got to do. Talk about it more. I am sure there are good stories out there. I see a lot of 'views' on the forum, over 100, so join us please. It is hard at the moment as everything is pink for breast cancer and in QLD I havent found anything for pancreatic cancer. But this forum is great.  I am hearing about more people who have had pancreatic cancer and they just dont talk about it. Give us a helping hand please

Hi Mollie,the cancer council have telephone support groups so ,maybe,that might be of help for you...to actually talk to people who are going through the same thing as you.I feel it was probably harder on my family and partner when I was sick than  it was on me.Keep up the good work

I think it's important to remember that you don't have to be positive 100% of the time. You're only human. Some days you are going to feel down, some days you will feel sad but that doesn't make you a less strong person.
