hi mel,you poor thing.i remember when i was diagnosed and i have to say,i honestly think it is harder for the family and loved ones than it is for the patient! if he wants to work and is able to,let him.being at home all day and having all that time to think,is not good!!! just love him and support him and as hard as it is to remember,LOOK AFTER YOUSELF!don't feel guilty about having time out,you have to stay strong for everyone.maybe the carers forum would be of some benefit for you? don't give up...i'm 3yrs past a stge 3 pancreatic cancer diagnosis!miracles can happen, praying for you all,margro

Hi Mazza, thank you,I appreciate your thoughts.I have said a prayer!I think what hit me the most was the fact my friend helped me so much when I was crook and you hope they too will recover!At least he is now at peace. I think guilt sometimes plays a part as well,I'm still here but he isn't......dumb hey?

Hi everyone, Aside from birds(terrified of them),one of the things I hate most is having my photo taken.I hate it when people say"that's a really good photo"and you look and think "S..t,didn't realise I look that bad!". Having told you all that,let me now fill you in on my day. Someone wrote a letter to the "letters to the editor' section of the local paper.In the letter they told the story of my cancer and the fact that I am walking in the city to surf to raise money for pancreatic research.I have an idea who it was but I can't prove anything.At lunchtime today I received a phone call from a journo at the paper,she interviewed me over the phone and then came my biggest fear..they took a PHOTO!!!! I hope you all apreciate the fact that not only am I doing this walk(hope the organisers don't pack up and leave before I finish!)BUT I also had to have my picture taken!! Hopefully the story will generate some donations ...mind you,I think there would be a lot more chance of donations if they don't run the photo!Margro

Hi guys,I'm feeling sad tonight,just heard I lost another friend to cancer and I was wondering if anyone had some way they cope when this happens? I think ,since my diagnosis,any death from cancer hits doubly hard,but,it's something that is in the back of my mind all the time. Am I the only one?Even with a good outcome,I still worry about every blood test etc.Does that ever go away? As you may have gathered I am normally very positive,but,it's hard to stay positive at times when things like this happen
