Hello

First off I should say that I don't have ovarian cancer. I actually have primary peritoneal cancer, which is very similar to ovarian cancer and the treatment is the same. Primary peritoneal cancer is very rare (especially in someone so 'young' as me) and most people (including the doctors) call it ovarian cancer or ovarian type cancer.

I found out in September 2006 that I had cancer, although I later discovered I had had it for many years, and by this time it was stage 4. My life has changed a lot in the last 4 years, but not just in a bad way.

I would like this blog to help people with cancer, whatever type they have, and hope my stories and thoughts can make life a little easier for them.
