I'm a mature (in terms of years) lady in Hampshire,  Southern England, diagnosed with breast cancer  on 20th April 2018. I live alone but have the loving support of dog, cats, ponies, sheep, goats, geese, rhea, chicken,  ducks, turkeys and  rabbits. Anyone with animals will know what I mean here by "loving support". I can turn to these loyal, loving creatures when things hurt or I'm just feeling down and they will look at me with sympathetic, understanding eyes for at least 2 seconds before demanding food, drink, clean bedding,  scratched ears and cuddles - and all right NOW!  
I'm here because I want to be able to talk with positive people who understand what this fight is all about first hand,  share information and experience, and give and receive support.
