Hey All Just thought Id give you an update. Ive had 5 Treatments now with Beta (my new best friend) radiotherapy at Toowoomba. The staff are awesome, my oncologist (who I am teaching Aussie Slang) is lovely. Im applying my cream religiously, my skin around my neck is going a little pink now but no signs of dry mouth, loss of taste etc. I hate the mask, I just try to think of some where nice when it is on, keep you updated Leesa

Hi Everyone, It appears there may have been some misunderstanding here. Malcolm, I assume you were in fact using the term 'septic tank' as in 'yank' or 'American'? Beautylee, I can understand how you may feel that you have been disrespected if you did not understand why Malcolm used the language he did. Can I please ask everyone to be mindful of what is said to one another and to not use unclear or abusive language. If you are concerned about a comment or post then let us know at admin@cancerconnections.com.au and we will look into it and respond if necessary. Please remember this online community exists to enable each of you to give and receive support and share your experiences with one another. Kind regards, Felix Cancer Connections Coordinator
