Hi, I was diagnosed with Leukemia when I was 7 and finished treatment around when I was 11 years old. During the time, I was pretty much completely isolated from everyone , I didn't speak to any other people on the ward as I was extremely anxious. I'm now 19 and in university. The whole experience has affected me physically and mentally and it's still hard to cope as I never really got over it. I think speaking to people who went through similar experience would help.
I've never met anyone else who went through childhood cancer and haven't really spoken about it my whole life, I'd like to maybe make some friends who understand the experience.
Does anyone know of any support groups in Manchester that would also be helpful ?
