    Hi Shobro,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. I am so sorry about your family brushes with cancer. You have been bombasted by so much over the years that I'm sure you have a lot to give to others who are fighting this horrible disease. I must offer you my sincere sympathy on the loss of your husband and of your young brother.

    Instead of waiting for people to come to you for help, why don't you do a search for people with, brain, kidney and breast cancers? You can access the search tool on the blue band at the top of this page. It is on the left hand side. This should bring up previous posts that you can respond to.

    What stage are you at in your own cancer journey? It sounds as if you've been fighting hard for many years. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

    Please keep in touch and let us know how you are getting on. There is always someone here if you feel like talking.

    Kind regards,

    Jolamine xx
