It’s more of a hand hold than an AIBU but when I posted in the cancer group a few weeks ago I didn’t get many responses. So apologies, I know I’m being naughty posting here.

i just want a hand hold. Early 30’s, a 1&2 YO, cancer diagnosis with hopeful treatment to cure.

starting my chemo today, now, it’s a long old day of sitting in a chair. Just want a chit chat, a hand hold. What is everyone doing today?

trying my best to stay zen. Anything good to watch on iPlayer or Netflix?

Hi OP, sorry to hear this.

I took the kids to school this morning, came home did washing now I’m just trying to warm up as it’s absolutely freezing here!

Wishing you all the best💪🏼💖

Hope it goes well OP. We have started watching 'The Night Manager' on iPlayer (missed it first time round) and enjoying that.

Sending you prayers for a swift recovery Flowers

How are the medics, are they treating you well?

I would re-watch all 4 seasons of Stranger Things to get ready for Stranger Things 5 which comes next week!
