Welcome to the forum Matooke although I'm sorry for the reason you're joining us.
Whether you've received a diagnosis yourself, or someone you know has been diagnosed with cancer, it can come as a huge shock and you may experience a whole range of feelings.
Coping with this news can be very tough but I hope this information we have on managing your emotions will help.
Hopefully some of our members - many of which will know what you're going through right now - will offer their thoughts and advice to you soon but if it would help to talk things through with one of our cancer nurses, you can do so on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They're very understanding and will do all that they can to help you at this time.
In the meantime, be kind to yourself Matooke and take as much time as you need to process the news you've been given.
