Hi, I was diagnosed with ACC back in 2009. An operation was not possible only radiation which seems to have worked for the moment. No growth since and most symptoms gone. Although I no longer have good feeling in my left cheek area, I can feel but the sensation is widespread rather than specific (if that makes sense) and is tingly.

Thank you very much for your wise words (and the birthday hug). I will certainly use that quote if you don't mind. I actually found myself having a breakdown at work today. I think I cried for a solid 6 hours. When I started having thoughts of why didn't the doctors just let me die, I knew it was time to seek help. I phoned Cancer Council and had a long conversation with a very nice nurse. She is going to put me in touch with a counsellor. I have never experienced anything like this before and it was quite scary. Sorry you have neuropathy. That is not a nice thing to have - my dad has it. I do hope that it doesn't progress any worse for you. I think you have been through enough. I think I may take some medication and have an early night. Hopefully my happy face will be back on tomorrow. Got to get ready to face Thursday, my 3 month check up. Take care Tash ... View more

You need to do what is in your heart. If you feel the need, see a solicitor, they will guide you. The ashes of a loved one is important to the family, to you. Once again follow your heart. When the time is right you will know what to do. ... View more
