Just a reminder of the regular live chat sessions on Tuesday evenings for people with a diagnosis of secondary breast cancer. It’s an online service where you can talk to others in real time. It is facilitated by an experienced moderator and a specialist nurse who are on hand to point you to sources of help and information. But for most people, the chance to talk to others in a similar situation is what counts.
The next session is TONIGHT (Tuesday 25 September) from 8.30-9.30pm.
For more details about how it works, see the Live Chat page of our website.
We’re also putting on a special Live Chat session to mark Secondary Breast Cancer Awareness Day. The session is on Wednesday 10 October, 8.30-9.30pm. Because it’s an extra session (the usual Live Chat session will run as usual the day before) we wanted to make it a themed session, focusing on a particular issue, so we can explore it in a bit more detail.
Thanks to everyone who registered their interest in the special Secondary Breast Cancer Awareness Day live chat session tomorrow evening.
We asked you which topic you wanted the session to cover, and you asked overwhelmingly for a session on “treatment and side effects”. So our two nurses who are running the session are ready and prepared to facilitate a discussion on that theme.
Do come along tomorrow evening to this special live chat session and talk to other people with secondary breast cancer about issues relating to your treatment and any side effects you’re experiencing or are worried about.
The session is on Wednesday 10 October, 8.30-9.30pm. If you’re new to live chat, just make sure you’re registered on the forum and then at 8.30pm log in here to chat breastcancercare.org.uk/community/chat
Our usual Tuesday evening session is running tonight as well, also at 8.30pm, so feel free to come along to that as well.
We seem to be having some website issues this evening. The live chat session is running, if you can manage to log in, so do please join us if you’re able to.
