newly diagnosed endometrial cancer

Hello,  this is all new to me.   I was given the shocking news last Thursday that following my biopsy cancerous cells were found,  fortunately grade 1 cancer.  I am having an hysterectomy next Wednesday 21st Dec,  my birthday is 19th Dec and it will be my 60th.         Does anyone know apart from the MacMillan Grant of any other charity or society that would help cancer patients in need of financial help  ?    I cannot work for a while and we are very short,   any advice would be helpful.

  • Hello Bay, 

    We have some information on our website about cancer and financial support which I've linked for you here and might hopefully be of some help. It's possibly also worth talking to your specialist nurse to see if they are aware of anything locally that you might be able to access.

    In the meantime sending you our best wishes for your birthday next week and for the operation.
