HI there Rita,
Even though I am a cancer survivor, I also lost my best friend to Breast Cancer on the 29 of January this year and not a day goes by that in some way something reminds me of her.I do the biggest morning tea with a fair few people now and I feel the more I can do to raise the money someday they will find a cure that does not leave people in pain once they have finished treatment. I am here if you want to talk.... Hugs (((0))) to your friend.

Hi everyone , well since being on here hiding away your advise has been wonderful. I went and had surgery on the fourth of july once again. number seven now and all went well I thought. Doctor seems think the mass is and might not be cancer which is good and the bladder fix up went well. They had some trouble putting the sling in for there was way to much scar tissue but they went with a small one and hope it stays in place but I am on three weeks bed rest and should get the result in about ten days so I am pleased, sore, a bit excited. My family have been great, my dad coming up was the best my kids look after me well. I am thankful even my husband has come home to help. Hopefully he stays but not getting hopes up on that one. All in all not a bad result. Will keep everyone posted when the results come in. Thanks again this sight is great for venting good and bad news.

Well I got my letter in the mail today about my next surgery that is a result from my first cancer. I am looking forward to it but scared at the same time.I have a bladder reconstruction and a sling put in. I am hoping that is straight forward, but my family are hurting seeing me go under the knife once again. I have tried to hold them up in the past but for some reason no longer have the strength to do so this time. Please help, all I do now is work and come home. I have even found it hard to answer the phone from them for they want to hear words that I no longer have. I am tired and just need some support from people that sometimes do not have the right word. I need some incouraging words for my family, please help they think I have given up because I do not want to talk about it. I have far from given up but with everything over the last four years I just do not want to say the wrong thing to them..
