I'm looking for young people with cancer in the uk??!
Question: i have recently been diagnosed with a form of cancer. i have spoken to allot of people and have received plenty of support from lots of people which I'm grateful for but most of them are considerably older than me and i would like to talk to people around my own age (22) who are in the same boat as me that i can talk to and can develop long lasting friendships with through our conditions. now I've found plenty of cancer forums for young people on-line but they tend to predominantly American which is OK but as i live in England there's not much potential for connections to be made so i was wondering if anyone knows of the best to proceed.

I'm 18 and I'm being treated for my second relapse of cancer. I'd love to chat with you, unfortunately I'm not in the UK. I'm in the US, but I'm originally from Australia. I reckon it'd be nice to chat. Message me on yahoo, I'm babyfacehly13.
I haven't got cancer but i would just like to say that i'm sorry you have this horrible disease and that you should keep your chin up and fight it all the way. Good luck xxx
