During the course of the year there is often a period, set aside for cancer awareness. This is good, but people do not only deal with the disease at that time. It is therefore a great idea to offer a special cancer social network for people. This is where they can find others where mutual support could be offered.

In this way, patients and survivors can be connected all over the world. This is a means of getting into many homes all over the country and the world where people deal with this. The network would allow them to contact each other and be there to communicate, share difficulties and make survival tips available. This is where the same level of sharing can happen as with other networks.

This is where you create a profile, add your details such as your age, your contact details and whatever you prefer to share with other people. Your sharing would be about the type of disease and related things, which makes it different to others. You are able to share about your treatments and your preferred therapies.

It will also assist others if you could share your doctor and his details with them. This does help a great deal especially if you know he or she can help others too. The questions and issues you have, especially as a new patient has the potential to be answered here. By sharing your profile, comments and similar experiences will be of great help. It is especially so if people have similar types.

Very often, this would be the place to find answers, especially in an emergency. People in the same situation would be able to answer your questions. Your own photographs, other images, messages and cartoons can in motivate others. These photos and images (of life afterwards) can motivate others in remission and still battling the disease.

This would be the place for others to see that hair loss, through chemotherapy, can affect some people and often not all. In other cases photographs could also show some who have had no hair loss. If there is hair loss those often have great ways of making use of beautiful headgear (such as scarves and caps).

Friends and family think that, when they hear you have this disease, that you would look terrible. Here you could personal photos so that people can see that your appearance does not always change. It will also leave space for comments and discussions from those close to you.

The role here is ultimately to serve as a group to support one another. For some people it might also be easier to share their personal experiences on a platform such as this. If you are attending support sessions this could also serve as a substitute if you cannot always get to it.

Here patients who are in remission have the space to share similar experiences with others in the same situation. As another very difficult period, they can find encouragement as well. The need is for people to feel comfortable and comforted within the network.

This is the place where you can share all you want, is where there is a cancer social network available. People are going through similar experiences and can therefore talk about it here. It is about sharing all that is needed to find support.
