Hi,

I have recently been diagnosed with cervical cancer and it has been the worst time of my life thus far.  I am now just getting back to myself but still have good and bad days.  I am working in both my jobs to take my mind off things. I am worried about my finances when I have to take time off. It is a real worry for me as I live alone and there is only me to pay my bills. I know I shouldn't worry but I cant help it.

  • Welcome to the forum cutiesinger1976 although I'm sorry to hear about your diagnosis and the reason you are posting.

    It's completely understandable why you may be worried about this, especially if you are on your own but I just wanted to stop by and let you know we have a section on our website that provides information on the various types of finanical support you can receive in this situation which you can have a look at here. 

    I know many of our members have been in similar situations and hopefully some of them will be along soon to offer their support and advice as well.

    I hope this helps and is able to put your mind at ease.

    All the best,
