Hi Elle Mae, I'm sorry to hear about your friend. It must be really frustrating for you. I've tweeted about your post and blog to see if anyone can offer advice. Have you tried contacting the Teenage Cancer Trust? http://www.teenagecancertrust.org/

Hey Thank you I've had an appointment through for the end of this month for x-rays =). It might sound weird but I'm not so scared about a Cancer relapse, I find it harder to deal with the fact that a lot of my good friends passed away but I've survived, I have also found out that the guy I'm sort of seeing has Cancer in and around his bladder but he has refused treatment and I don't know how to help him I've only been on the receiving side of it and I just don't know how to help him deal with things can you suggest anything?

Thank you.

Elle Mae
