Hi Dave,
It�s a welcome from another fellow Aussie.
My first thought when I was reading some of these posts on my phone earlier this morning was ;
1. Not another David eek and
2.You have been through so much these last few months.

I particularly liked your response in one of your posts;

[quote=Dave1989]i only found this tonight by chance, and it's comforting to have that support group from those who have 'been there, done that'. i wouldn't wish any of it on my worst enemy. but like you say, it's very inspiring to see how strong some people are,especially yourself!

hopefully i can build some bonds and frienships as well. [/quote]

It is a good thing you found us as this is the best place for OC patients, carers, survivors etc and you will find many new friends here.

When you get a chance just add a signature so people here can see that summary every time you post and this helps with replies.
Got to MY STUFF, PROFILE, scroll right down to the bottom and add it where you see

You can cut and paste mine or someone elses and edit it to fit your profile if you like.

Love and best wishes and may you stay cancer free!
Gabriele
