Hi there I am introducing myself as Ellen or Betsy I have had skin cancer and at the moment my mother and neice are going through cancer and my daughter has to go and get a lump checked we have had slot of cancer in my lifetime and I worry about them it's hard to talk to them because they are independent which is good but it's hard to talk to my daughter about it as she doesn't listen

  • Hi Bessy and welcome to the forum.

    I'm sorry to hear you are contending with skin cancer at the moment, and that other members of your family have also been diagnosed with cancer.

    This must be very difficult for you all but our community are here for you Bessy and hopefully it won't be long until some of our members stop by to offer their support and advice.

    If you'd like to talk any of this through with one of our cancer nurses, do give them a call on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They're very easy to talk to and will do all they can to help, and address any other questions or concerns you may have at this time.

    We're here for you Bessy and wishing you and your family all the best on this journey.

    Kind regards,

    Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
