I found out a week ago, my nan has breast cancer and lung cancer...so this contest is for anything relating to the illness in any way. (e.g knowing someone that had it, what they went through etc, or factual..anything goes) Or any poems about anything to do with Nans/Grandmas. Simple enough?
More points and trophies will be added later on.

My Thoughts and prayers are with you honey.

This is very hard situation. I to take up of cancer of breasts. I deal with cancer. I am not doc. but I can help. I can answer on many questions related with cancer. You are in group of risk too but you can escape disease. It is possible to overcome cancer. Now your Grandmother can't wear bra and sleep on breasts and wear clinging clothes. This is very important. Please, write to me. This is my E-mail denny56@myway.com or choppe66@yahoo.com
I'll wait for message. NYCVoice -
Heyy :)
Thank you for your comment on my poem, I've just entered it. I hope you consider it as a good one.
I'm sooo sorry to hear about your Grandmother and I truly know sorry means nothing to you right now. I was merely 15 when my Nan got cancer and although I knew she was ill, I never expected her to be told she had 4weeks to live and 10days later her be dead. It's the hardest thing you ever go through and I've ever been through.
Just trust me when I say, keep strong for her and even though you may well lose her at some point because of it, spend the rest of your life making her proud because she will always be with you
Message me if you ever need to talk.
