I was diagnosed in late January this year and went through my treatment in Vancouver, Canada, but now find myself living in London, England, and I would be interested in communicating with, and possibly meeting up with, people on this site who are located in London.
I'm a San Franciscan by birth and upbringing, and have ended up in London with my wife via Vancouver, Canada and Edinburgh, Scotland. I'm not working yet, and I don't know anyone here, and that's proving a rough combination.
I think it might be very interesting if this site considered regional forums? Not trying to make lots of work for anyone, of course.
As for me, I've been told I'm in remission. That is a very positive outcome that I wasn't willing to even hope for. Now I need to figure out what comes next!
Thanks,
-Seth
