anyone in or near doncaster?? hi

just wondered whether there was anyone out there near me.

I’m 25 and although this site shows that there are many in the same boat sometimes i just don’t feel like i know anybody and wondered whether anyone felt the same.

I don’t want to mope and feel sorry for myself i just want to talk to someone and know that when i need to i can feel down and that the other person will understand and not judge me and want me to ‘just pull myself my together’.

Hopefully i hear from you soon.

take care

Peer Support Hi Kaylou

I am sure you will get some replies to your question from other users, but have you thought about contacting BCC about our Peer Support service? Here you are matched, as near as possible, with someone of a similar age and circumstances, they may even be able to match you with someone living not too far away.

The link to the information is as follows:
breastcancercare.org.uk/content.php?page_id=4438

I hope this is of help to you.

Kind regards
BCC Host

Hi Kaylou

I think I replied to one of your early posts last year when you were looking at treatment options. I live in Wakefield myself so am fairly close to you. Have you joined the ‘other site’ where you can personal message people? I’m on there with the same screen name so you could get in touch through there if you like.

I would really recommend the peer support service the moderator has mentioned… I used that when I had a few ropey weeks mid chemo - it did me the world of good :-).

From Donny HI
I too am from Doncaster. Was diagnosed Nov 06, had lumpectomy
no lymph involved but results were to have a mastectomy with recon.

Under Mr Kezzazi at DRI and have to say the man is a genius, and lovely with it.

I am 35 with 2 kids and have to say what a roller coaster the past 6 months have been.

I have just had my 4th FEC and have 2 more to go, so should be done for the end of June, should be taking tamoxifen, but have since developed blood clots on my lung, and have been told I won’t be able to have it.

Not sure where it will go after that!!!

I have just had a real few down days, but feel better today.
My mum thinks I am being too hard on myself and expecting too much, but at times I feel so useless that I just cry and cry.

If ever you want to have a good moan, feel free, as although this is a horrible thing anyone should be going through, it sometimes better to vent your feelings or anger at someone who can genuinly understand.

Take care

Thank you Hi thanks for your replies,

I’m going to sound a little dim but which one is ‘the other site’ or will they not let you post the name of it on here!?

Thanks

Hi again,

Here is the link:

www.phpbbserver.com/breastcancer

I think most people have the same username on both sites so you will probably recognise a few…!
