My friend who works on the floor below me told me today that her Dad who had recovered from non hodgkin's lymphoma, has now a year or so on, been diagnosed with brain cancer. We had a chat and a cup of tea, and I really want to help but all cancers are different, and I felt a bit useless in my attempts. I think maybe just a sympathetic ear helps.
But I was wondering if anyone had come accross a forum like this one, only for brain cancer. I have searched and searched and i cannot find anything. I told her to come and read here anyway as this help me so much.
I'll pass on any information you have.
Thanks
Cecilia
