Good morning Beatle,

I am sorry to read about your recent diagnosis. Hopefully as it's early stage, there is a very good chance of a good recovery. But short term I know the stresses and emotions it brings out in even the strongest of us. That is why this site is so good for there are some wonderful people on here who know what it's like especially during the waiting period. Please post on here as often as you feel the need.

Wishing you all the best and please keep us posted, Brian.

Thanks to everyone who has replied to me. It is good to know that people on here understand how I feel. It's unbelievable how many of us are going through this. I find it very helpful to talk. 

Hi there, you have definately come to the right place for friendly help and advice. As you say, there are an awful lot of people here who have been where you are now and we all understand how difficult it is to cope with such a diagnosis. I am further down the line, having had surgery in March, so if you have any questions or worries I am more than happy to help. Or, if you simply want to rant & rave, this is the place to do it!

Take care of yourself and do keep in touch. Sue xx
