Hey jenny,

I'm new here too.  Im 48, hubby & 2 kids (12 & 14) Diagnosed with tonsil cancer & 1 lymph node in April.  Starting chemordiotherapy on Monday.  Scared to say the least.

Even with wonderful support around me it can  still be a lonely and isolating time hun.  Our minds are our worst enemy sometimes! 

Sending lots of love.

Hey kelsa sorry if that's not name!?... Lovely to meet you sorry it's under these circumstances!. Thanks for your reply, although I don't have what you been diagnosed with, I sympathise with you all the same. I was petrified before my chemotherapy started. The word petrified me alone!. I went through radiotherapy first the previous year as cancer was confined to one spot in my spine. I had 5 weeks intensive radiotherapy that was no problem at all, just heartburn. I suppose I was lucky where it was didn't cause me too many problems. The chemotherapy wasn't half as bad as I expected I coped well with it all. The treatment is much better and people tolerate it much better.... That's what I was told by everyone, but until you go through it it's daunting. I wish you all the best for your treatment ahead. I have 4 kids oldest 35 and youngest 21. Divorced many years ago. It's just me and my kids and that's always been the way. They are my kids and friends also... I hope that doesn't sound weird lol . Talk soon I hope love Jenny x
