Foreword

 

We get requests almost everyday, some have a recurring theme, if that happens we add the links we give back here, if you find they are broken or they are clearly not a good resource let us know.

 

The woman's section is for any woman young or old, we mean this as a first rung on the ladder, we know it's helped others, we hope it helps you. If you find a better resource on your travels and could let us know we would be grateful.



Net Mums

I'm never sure whether this is a business or an online community or even a bit of both, either way it works! I'm sure men would get a bit of insight into what the stresses and strains of being a mum are if they read it, then again, they don't get the rewards either.

You can check out your own geographical area for closer support too!

Utterly fabulous resource!

Breast Cancer (Mastectomy)

In March 1985, after a routine physical, then a surgical checkup, then a needle biopsy, then a mammogram, then a bone scan and a liver scan, then a surgical biopsy done in the hospital, I was diagnosed with ductal carcinoma in situ; terms which meant nothing to me (except for the second one, that is...) This is a diary from the beginning until being well again
