Another family member with Cancer.

Hello. I hope I'm ok to post here. 

I don't actually have cancer but sadly my FIL does and I just wanted somewhere to chat if I needed support for myself and hubby.

The diagnosis is compounded by the fact that my FIL is not the first family member to battle cancer. My mum passed away from Lymphoma five years ago and my Fils, sister and brother have also both passed from cancer in the same time frame.

Anyway. I just thought I'd say hello.

    Hi dragonfly welcome to the forum the club nobody wants to join, if you want to talk have a good rant you've come to the right place, we're like a big unruly family we all fight for the same thing if we can help others we do what we can, with out thinking about it, if they need us we'll be there best wishes...

    Hi dragonfly, I am new to this support site, my sister has stage 4 bowel cancer, but it's nice to have the forum to chat and support each other surrounding this horrible disease, it's not right and it's not fair
