Right, well, i'll kick off with where I am- it'll help new people understand why i've been kicked over here! posters who were here yonks back will remember some of my good times and my bad times, these days i focus on the good times and make the bloody most of what i've got!
I was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer a few years back, i've had the lot, chemo, rads, hormone treatments, bits chopped out and i'm still on that track, every now and again they decide to remove a bit more of me but i'm still here and that's what's important. I still know that it'll get me one day, but i don't focus on that anymore.
I have young kids (although two of them are not so young as they're 7 today 
) and i was diagnosed initially the day before my daughters six-week check-up. I'm in my early 30's, i now work as a top-level civil servant and travel the world.... and all of this with cancer- it's not the end, and if anything, for me it was the beginning. I spent a lot of time hating the fact that i won't see my children as adults, but, as time went on i realised that actually without the kick up the backside that cancer gave me, i wouldn't have made the effort to get where i am and be the person i am!
