Hello everyone, or anyone who may read this.   I have had the unfortunate or fortunate experience of Cancer both for myself and other close family and now my husband. I do actually use my experiences as a font of knowledge and understanding.    My own Cancer was Breast Cancer twice but any years apart. Here l still am and wishing there was more acccess for new patients to hear about people like me….the Survivors!     My husband is about to find out about his latest scan and biopsy, he had a rare Melanoma tumour at the back of his eye last year.      Cutting to the chase a bit….my experience over the years of various scans and tests and treatment have often, and are now, certainly helpful for anyone about to embark with the fear of the unknown in these various areas. All information and explanation these days provided by the clinics are superb BUT it’s nice knowing from someone who has been on the receiving end.     I have just joined this and will dip in now and then and attempt some comments hopefully of support.   I am a mature lady…grandmother to many and as l said “Still here” when my first cancer was when my children were little…..it IS possible to carry on.        Maincoon
